Experience the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and buttery goodness with this Fresh Peach & Berry Cobbler! This crowd-pleasing dessert combines juicy ripe peaches and a medley of vibrant mixed berries, all sweetened and lightly thickened with vanilla, lemon juice, and a touch of cornstarch. The fruit filling is crowned with a golden, tender biscuit topping made from scratch using cold butter and heavy cream for a flaky, melt-in-your-mouth texture. A sprinkle of coarse sugar adds an irresistible crunch to every bite. Ready in just one hour, this cobbler is a stunningly simple, oven-baked classic that pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Perfect for summer gatherings or anytime you crave a warm, comforting dessert, it's a delightful way to showcase fresh seasonal fruits.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches and mixed berries.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, the vanilla extract, and lemon juice over the fruit. Mix well to coat evenly.
Transfer the fruit mixture to a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter, fork, or your hands, cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the heavy cream, stirring gently with a fork until the mixture just comes together to form a soft dough.
Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mixture over the fruit filling, covering most of the surface but leaving a few small gaps for steam to escape.
If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar over the biscuit topping for added crunch and sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow the cobbler to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
