Mixed Berry Cobbler
My ultimate Mixed Berry Cobbler is perfectly sweet and utilizes in season strawberries, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries. Topped with a flaky, buttery biscuit topping and best served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. It's a delicious and surprisingly easy dessert to make!

Ingredients
For the berries:
- 7-8 cups mixed berries (I used fresh strawberries, blackberries, raspberries and blueberries)
- 2/3 cup sugar, or less if preffered
- 3 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- Pinch of cinnamon
Biscuit topping
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 5 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cold, cubed
- 2/3 cup buttermilk, cold
- for topping before baking: 1 Tbsp. cold buttermilk and coarse sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven ot 375°F.
- Spray a 2.5-3 QT. oven safe baking dish with non-stick baking spray.
- Make the filling: dice large strawberries into quarters. In a large bowl combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla and cinnamon. Stir gently to combine. Pour into the prepared pan in an even layer.
- Make the biscuit batter: Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Cut in the cold butter - I like to work the butter into the flour mixture by pressing it between my fingers until the butter pieces are the size of peas. You can also use a pastry cutter or just two forks.
- Slowly stream in the buttermilk and stir until the dry ingredients are moistened. Scoop the dough onto the berry mixture using a cookie scoop. Brush the tops with buttermilk and a sprinkle of coarse sugar.
- Bake for ~40-45 minutes or until the tops are a nice golden/amber brown and the juices along the edges are bubbling.
- Allow to cool for ~5-10 minutes. Scoop and serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes
- Storage: I find berry cobbler is best enjoyed the same day. But if you have leftovers, I suggest you store the baked, and cooled-to-room-temperature cobbler in an airtight container for no more than 3 days.
- Frozen berries: I recommend using fresh but frozen will work, too! Do not thaw them before adding in. Using frozen berries will also make your cobbler more liquid-y.
