Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, blueberries, brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla.
- In another large bowl, whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter. Using a fork or pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbly. Add the milk and stir gently until a dough forms. Don’t overmix.
- Pour the fruit mixture into a greased 10-inch cast iron skillet. Alternatively, you can use an 8x8-inch square baking dish. Place dollops of the topping evenly over the surface of the fruit using two spoons or a small cookie scoop. Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of sugar on top.
- Bake cobbler in the oven until filling is bubbly and topping is golden brown, 45-55 minutes. If topping is getting too dark, cover the skillet loosely with aluminum foil. Serve cobbler plain or with Greek yogurt or ice cream, if desired.
Notes
- You can fresh or frozen fruit to make this cobbler. Defrost frozen fruit and drain any water before proceeding with the recipe.
- Slice the peaches thinly (⅛ to ¼ inch thick) so that they'll cook faster. You want the peaches to cook in the same amount of time as the blueberries. I also like to cut the peaches into bite-sized pieces for easy scooping and eating.
- I like to use a 50:50 mix of all purpose flour and white whole wheat flour to incorporate some whole grains into the dish.
- Don't over-mix the dough for the biscuit topping otherwise it will be tough. Stop when the ingredients are just combined.
- Leave some space between dollops of biscuit dough to allow steam to escape as it bakes. This will prevent a gummy filling and create more crevices with yummy caramelized fruit.
- If the biscuit topping is getting too dark, cover the skillet loosely with aluminum foil until the filling is cooked through.
