Cherry Cobbler with Biscuit Topping

Updated at: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 03:54:47 GMT

Step 1

Add the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and almond extract to a large pot.

Step 2

Heat over medium heat until the cherries begin to break down and the filling thickens, about 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

Pour the cherry filling into the bottom of a baking dish and set aside.

Step 4

Cut the butter into small cubes and place back in the fridge to firm up.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step 6

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 7

Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients by flattening the cubes into disks. You want the butter to remain in relatively large chunks (about quarter sized).

Step 8

Slowly drizzle the heavy cream over top, combining with a fork as you go. Using a spatula or bowl scraper, fold the dough over onto itself a few times in the bowl until it comes together into a wet and sticky dough.

Step 9

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a circle that's between 1/2 and 1 inch thick.

Step 10

Using a small biscuit cutter, stamp out about 12-15 round biscuits (re-roll the scraps if needed).

Step 11

Arrange the biscuits on top of the cherry filling. Lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with a melted butter and sprinkle with sparkling sugar if desired.

Step 12

Bake at 400°F for 10 minutes.

Step 13

Then reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for 30-40 minutes until the filling is bubbly and the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.

Step 14

Serve warm with homemade whipped cream or vanilla ice cream!
