Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups light brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
5 cups peeled, cored sliced pears
1 cup raisins
3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, in pieces
3 to 4 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a nine-inch round baking dish.
  • Mix brown sugar with cornstarch in a large bowl. Fold in pears and raisins, the melted butter and nutmeg. Spoon mixture into baking dish.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture has a mealy texture. Lightly stir in the milk to form a firm but tender dough.
  • Roll out dough on a floured board and cut it into strips one-inch wide. Criss-cross the strips over the fruit. Sprinkle the top with granulated sugar.
  • Bake about 40 minutes, until the crust has browned and the filling bubbles. Serve while still warm, with whipped cream.

This cobbler is a great way to use up leftover pears. I had a few pears that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this cobbler. It turned out so well! The filling was sweet and juicy, and the cobbler topping was nice and crispy. I will defin

This cobbler was a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. The filling was very juicy and the cobbler topping was nice and crispy. I would make it again, but I would use less sugar.
