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.
