Best 4 Cranberry Pear Cobbler Recipes

PEAR COBBLER WITH CRANBERRY STREUSEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Peel the pears and cut them in 1/2 through the stem end. Use a melon baller to scoop out the cores. Put the pear halves in a large bowl. Sprinkle over the vanilla; toss. Then sprinkle over the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg and toss to coat the pears with the flavorings. Line the pears up in a buttered, sugared baking dish, rounded sides up.
• In the same bowl, mash together the butter, brown sugar, flour, and salt with your hands for the topping. Toss in the cranberries. Crumble the topping mixture over the pears in the baking dish and bake until the topping is crunchy and browned and the pears are very tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream.

PEAR AND CRANBERRY COBBLER WITH CITRUS-INFUSED CUSTARD SAUCE

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.
