Peach-Blackberry Cobbler with Almond-Buttermilk Biscuit Topping and Almond Whipped Cream image

Provided by Damaris Phillips

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 cups chopped peeled peaches (about 6 large peaches)
2 cups blackberries
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
9 ounces all-purpose flour
3 ounces almond flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cubed, very cold
2 ounces leaf lard, cubed, very cold
9 ounces buttermilk
Milk, for brushing
2 tablespoons raw sugar, such as Sugar in the Raw
1 cup heavy cream, cold
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F with a rack in the center of the oven and a second rack underneath; place a baking sheet on the second rack (to catch drips).
  • For the filling: In a large bowl, toss the peaches and blackberries with the granulated sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish.
  • For the topping: Whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Using your fingers or two knives, cut in the butter and lard until a coarse meal forms. Create a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk. Mix until just combined. The dough will seem quite wet, but that's what you want for the topping.
  • Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough onto the filling, brush lightly with milk and sprinkle with the raw sugar.
  • Bake until the fruit is bubbling and tender, and the biscuits are deep golden-brown and cooked through, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  • Meanwhile, make the whipped cream: Whip the cream and granulated sugar until soft peaks form. Fold in the almonds.
  • Serve the cobbler warm or room temperature in bowls; top with dollops of whipped cream.

VEGAN CHERRY COBBLER WITH ALMOND BISCUIT TOPPING



Vegan Cherry Cobbler with Almond Biscuit Topping image

We love local spring cherries, but our cobbler works equally well with fresh or frozen cherries. We chose easy drop biscuits for the topping since they allow the jewel-like cherry juices to bubble up around them--a great visual showcase for a simple desert. Baking the cherries first without the topping gives them time to soften in their own juices, and dropping the biscuits on hot filling helps them cook through--no soggy bottoms. Almond goes beautifully with cherries, so we use almond extract in both the filling and topping, plus a little almond flour in the topping as well.

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup vegan granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/4 pounds fresh sweet cherries, stemmed and pitted (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup almond flour, preferably skin-on
1/4 cup vegan granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup refined coconut oil, melted and cooled but still liquid
1/8 teaspoon almond extract
1/3 cup cashew milk

Steps:

  • Scant tablespoon vegan raw, turbinado or granulated sugar, for sprinkling
  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, put about a 9-inch piece of foil on a rack below it and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the filling: Whisk the granulated sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl. Add the cherries and their juices and toss to coat the berries well; stir in the lemon juice and almond extract. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch square, 9-by-2-inch round or other 2-quart baking dish. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake until very hot and beginning to bubble around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes. (The colder your cherries, the longer it will take.)
  • For the topping: While the berries cook (about 20 minutes into the baking time is fine), whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Stir the coconut oil and almond extract into the measuring cup or bowl with the cashew milk. Add it to the flour mixture and toss with a fork, then stir with a spatula or wooden spoon to make a cohesive dough.
  • Carefully remove the filling from the oven, remove the foil and give the mixture a good stir. Working quickly, drop 8 to 10 spoonfuls of topping over the filling, making sure a few of them touch the edges of the dish, sprinkle with the raw sugar and bake until the topping is golden brown and crisp and a skewer inserted in a few biscuits comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let the cobbler cool about 30 minutes, during which time it will thicken up a bit, then divide among bowls and serve.

Yield Makes 12 servings

Filling
2 pounds fresh Bing cherries, pitted, or two 1-pound bags frozen sweet cherries, thawed, drained
2 pounds apricots, halved, pitted
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon almond extract
Topping
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3/4 cup chilled buttermilk
3/4 cup chilled whipping cream
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • For filling:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss all ingredients in large bowl to blend. Transfer to 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Bake until filling is hot and begins to bubble at edges, about 35 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
  • Meanwhile, prepare topping:
  • Whisk flour, 1/2 cup sugar and next 3 ingredients in another large bowl to blend. Add butter; rub in with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Slowly add buttermilk and cream, tossing with fork until dough comes together.
  • Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls over hot filling to cover. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Continue to bake cobbler until topping is golden and tester inserted into center of topping comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool 15 minutes. Serve cobbler warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries are the best choice for this cobbler, as they have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen cherries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Pit the cherries: It's important to pit the cherries before using them in the cobbler. You can do this by using a cherry pitter or by cutting the cherries in half and removing the pits with a knife.
  • Make sure the cobbler is bubbling before baking: Before you put the cobbler in the oven, make sure that the cherry mixture is bubbling. This will help to ensure that the cobbler is cooked through.
  • Serve the cobbler warm: Cherry cobbler is best served warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
