Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups frozen blackberries (about 15 ounces; do not thaw)
1 1/2 large pears, halved, cored, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2/3 cup plus 3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons dry red wine
2 teaspoons finely grated tangerine peel or orange peel
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon plus additional for sprinkling
1 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Powdered sugar
Vanilla ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 1/2- quart baking dish with 2-inch-high sides. Gently toss berries, pears, 2/3 cup sugar, wine, peel, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in medium bowl.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 3/4 cup sugar in another medium bowl. Add milk, melted butter, and almond extract; whisk until blended. Spread batter in prepared dish. Place berry-pear mixture atop batter (do not stir). Sprinkle with additional cinnamon.
  • Bake cobbler until crust is set in center and brown at edges, about 1 hour. Cool 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar; serve warm with ice cream, if desired.
  • GOOD TO KNOW:
  • Why not stir the fruit into the batter? Left undisturbed, the batter puffs up around the fruit during baking, forming a crusty edge.

PEAR AND BLACKBERRY COBBLER

Cobbler is a term often used to describe a baked fruit dessert with a topping - but this is a true cobbler with crunchy biscuit dough dropped on top.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 Bartlett pears (about 4 pounds)
2 1/2 pints blackberries (about 5 cups)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, plus 3 teaspoons for sprinkling
3 teaspoons granulated sugar for sprinkling
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons brandy
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
10 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (1 1/4 sticks), cut into small pieces
1 cup milk
3/4 cup heavy cream, chilled

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Cut pears in half lengthwise; remove stem, core with melon baller, and peel. Slice each half lengthwise into 6 1/2-inch-thick slices and place in a large bowl. Add blackberries, lemon juice, 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, cornstarch, and brandy. Toss gently to combine and transfer to a 3 1/2-quart baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Using two knives, cut the pieces of butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Add the milk and stir with a fork until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  • Drop 1/3 cup dough onto the fruit, and repeat, covering the surface of the fruit with "biscuits" that are just touching. Sprinkle the top with remaining 3 teaspoons granulated sugar and bake until golden brown and juices are bubbling rapidly, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve with cold heavy cream on the side.

Tips:

  • For the most flavorful cobbler, use ripe, in-season blackberries and pears.
  • If you don't have fresh fruit, you can use frozen or canned fruit instead. Just be sure to thaw frozen fruit before using.
  • If you want a sweeter cobbler, you can add more sugar to the filling. You can also add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the filling to help thicken it.
  • Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the cobbler. This will help the cobbler to cook evenly.
  • Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Blackberry pear cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, this cobbler is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give blackberry pear cobbler a try.
