Ingredients
– 8 cups mixed berries (approximately 1 kg), with a suggested mix: 3 cups blueberries, 2 cups blackberries, 1 and 1/2 cups chopped strawberries, 1 and 1/2 cups raspberries
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 2 tablespoons cornstarch
– 1 teaspoon lemon juice
– 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
– 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/3 cup granulated sugar
– 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
– 1/2 cup cold buttermilk
– 1 tablespoon buttermilk
– Coarse sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
1-Getting started with berry cobbler: Begin by preheating your oven to 350Β°F (177Β°C) and greasing a 9Γ13-inch baking pan to ensure nothing sticks.
2-Next, in a large bowl, gently combine the 8 cups mixed berries (about 1 kg; suggested mix: 3 cups blueberries, 2 cups blackberries, 1 and 1/2 cups chopped strawberries, 1 and 1/2 cups raspberries) with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Spread this mixture evenly into your prepared pan for an even bake. Then, in another bowl, whisk together 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
3-Cutting in butter and mixing dough: Cut in 6 tablespoons of cold unsalted butter (cubed) until the mixture looks like pea-sized crumbs, then slowly stir in 1/2 cup cold buttermilk until the dough forms.
4-Divide and place dough: Divide the dough into handfuls, flatten them with your hands, and place them over the berry mixture to cover most of the surface.
5-Top dough and prepare for baking: Brush the top with 1 tablespoon buttermilk and sprinkle with coarse sugar for that extra crunch.
6-Bake: Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until the topping is golden brown and fully cooked use a toothpick to check if itβs done.
7-Cool and serve: Let it cool for about 5 minutes before serving warm, perhaps with vanilla ice cream for a delightful finish.
