Buttermilk Cobbler Food

EASY BUTTERMILK BLUEBERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Put butter in a 9" round cake pan and place in oven until butter is melted.
• In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, soda and salt until combined. Add buttermilk and whisk until smooth.
• Pour batter into cake pan. Scatter berries evenly over the batter.
• Stir sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle over the berries. Bake in preheated oven 50-60 minutes, until cake is brown and berries have burst. Serve warm or at room temperature, with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

PEACH-PLUM COBBLER WITH BUTTERMILK BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
• Prepare the filling: Toss the peaches and plums in a medium bowl with the brown sugar, honey, ginger and salt. Sprinkle in the flour and toss to coat. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
• Make the biscuits: Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter with your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Add the buttermilk and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times to bring it together. Pat into an even 1/4-inch thickness. Cut out the biscuits with a 2-inch-round cookie cutter, rerolling the scraps as needed.
• Arrange the biscuits on top of the filling. Brush with buttermilk and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake until the biscuits are golden and the filling is bubbling, about 50 minutes.

PEACH COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Generously butter a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish. Place the sliced peaches in the dish and sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and flour. Mix gently and spread evenly again. Bake for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile combine all dry ingredients for cobbler crust in a bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers, to make the texture like coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and stir to form a soft dough.
• Remove fruit from oven and drop rounded spoonfuls of dough on top. Sprinkle with last tablespoon of brown sugar and return to oven. Bake until fruit is bubbly and crust topping is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve warm with whipped cream.

PLUM COBBLER WITH BUTTERMILK CRUST

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400. In a medium bowl, mix the plums, 1/4 c of sugar, cinnamon and vanilla until combined. Spoon into a 1 1/2 - 2 quart ceramic or glass baking dish. Set aside.
• 2. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 1/2 c sugar. Add the buttermilk and melted butter, and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
• 3. Using a large spoon, dollop the batter onto the plums. (Don't worry about covering the entire surface - the batter will spread when it bakes.)
• 4. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until the cobbler topping is golden and set. Remove from the oven, and immediately sprinkle the top with 1 teaspoons sugar. Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
