Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Filling:
2 pounds firm Bartlett pears, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 2/3 cups fresh cranberries (6 ounces)
1 cup sugar
2 (1- by 3-inch) strips orange zest, finely chopped
1/4 cup brandy
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
Biscuit topping:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
rounded 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream, divided
1 teaspoon sugar
Accompaniment:
Citrus-Infused Custard Sauce
Special Equipment
2- to 2 1/2-quart shallow baking dish (1 1/2 - to 2-inches deep); 2-inch round cookie cutter

Steps:

  • Make filling:
  • Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in lower third. Butter baking dish.
  • Stir together pears, cranberries, sugar, orange zest, brandy and allspice in a large bowl. Transfer filling to baking dish and dot with butter.
  • Cover dish tightly with foil and bake 20 minutes.
  • Remove foil and continue to bake until cranberries burst and pears are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes more.
  • While filling is cooking, make biscuits:
  • Stir together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, then add 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons cream and stir just until a dough forms. Gather dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly floured surface (dough will feel dense and heavy; don't worry.)
  • Gently knead dough 6 times, then pat out into an 8-inch round (about 1/3-inch thick).
  • Cut out as many rounds as possible with lightly floured cutter, transferring to a sheet of wax paper. Gather scraps and pat out once more, then cut out more rounds. (You will have about 16).
  • Carefully but quickly, top hot fruit with biscuits, arranging in 1 layer. Brush biscuits with remaining tablespoon cream and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Continue to bake cobbler until biscuits are puffed and golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving and top with Citrus-Infused Custard Sauce.
