Title: Mixed Berry Cobbler
Ingredients:
– 4 cups mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– 1 teaspoon lemon zest
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– ½ cup granulated sugar (for the topping)
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, diced
– ½ cup milk
– Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, combine the mixed berries, ½ cup sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Gently toss the berries until they are well coated with the sugar mixture. Spread the berry mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, ½ cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the diced butter and using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
5. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the berry mixture in the baking dish. You don’t need to cover the entire surface; the dough will spread as it bakes.
6. Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbly.
7. Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This cobbler is best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an extra indulgent treat.
