Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For filling
3 cups frozen dark sweet cherries (14 oz; not thawed)
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
Scant 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
For topping
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small bits
1/3 cup well-shaken low-fat buttermilk

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Make filling:
  • Cook all filling ingredients with a pinch of salt in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar begins to dissolve, about 3 minutes. Spoon filling into a 9-inch ceramic or glass pie plate (1 inch deep).
  • Make topping and bake cobbler:
  • Whisk together flour, 2 teaspoons sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in buttermilk with a fork until just combined (do not overmix). Drop dough in 4 mounds over filling, leaving space between mounds. Sprinkle topping with remaining teaspoon sugar.
  • Bake until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe cherries. This will give your cobbler the best flavor.
  • Pit the cherries before using them. You can use a cherry pitter or a knife to do this.
  • Use a 9-inch baking dish. This is the most common size for a cobbler.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cobbler tough.
  • Bake the cobbler until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 45 minutes.
  • Let the cobbler cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the cobbler set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Sweet cherry cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust and sweet, juicy filling, this cobbler is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this sweet cherry cobbler a try.
