PEAR COBBLER

A rustic batter is dropped onto fresh pears before being baked for a healthier dessert. Using less sugar than most recipes I've seen, the crisp flavor of the pears is highlighted. My family and I enjoy this at breakfast. I leave 1 or 2 of the pears unpeeled to add a bit of color.

PEAR AND BLACKBERRY COBBLER



Pear and Blackberry Cobbler image

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:

  • When choosing blackberries, select ones with deep color and plump shape.
  • If using frozen blackberries, thaw them before using and drain off any excess liquid. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and adjust oven rack to middle position.
  • Use ripe, firm pears for a burst of flavor.
  • If using canned pears, be sure to drain them well.
  • For a crispy cobbler crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour. You can also add a tablespoon of sugar to the flour mixture for a sweeter crust.
  • To make sure the cobbler is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cobbler is done.
  • Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

This delectable pear and blackberry cobbler is a delightful treat that combines the sweet, juicy flavors of pears and blackberries with a warm, flaky crust. It's perfect for a special occasion or a cozy night in. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is sure to become a favorite.
