Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (peeled, pitted, and sliced) Fresh peaches
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 0.75 cups (divided) Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 5 tablespoons (cold and diced) Unsalted butter
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons (optional, for brushing) Heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons (optional, for topping) Coarse sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches and blueberries. Add 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt. Toss gently to combine, ensuring the fruit is evenly coated. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to release some juices.
Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and 0.25 cups of granulated sugar.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the cold diced butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually stir in the milk until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the fruit filling, leaving small gaps for the fruit to peek through. If desired, brush the top of the dough with heavy cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar for added texture and shine.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows the fruit filling to thicken slightly.
Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy!
