Peach Blackberry Cobbler With Almond Buttermilk Biscuit Topping And Almond Whipped Cream Food

SOUTHERN PEACH COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly butter a 9-inch square or 2.5-quart baking dish.
• Make the peach filling: In a large bowl, combine the peaches, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined and the peaches are evenly coated. Set aside.
• Make the biscuit topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 6 tablespoons of the sugar, the baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the butter and rub in with your fingers, or blend with a pastry cutter, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a liquid measuring cup, combine the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Add the buttermilk-vanilla mixture to the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until evenly moistened. Do not overmix; the batter will look lumpy.
• Assemble and bake the cobbler: Transfer the peach filling to the prepared baking dish and flatten into an even layer. Drop the batter in 6 large, evenly spaced dollops on top of the peaches. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the batter. Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the top is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool for about 1 hour, then serve with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.
• Cover any leftover cobbler loosely with a kitchen towel. (Do not cover with plastic wrap or the biscuit topping will get soggy.) Reheat in a 325°F oven for about 15 minutes.

• Make-Ahead Instructions: The cobbler can be made one day ahead and kept, covered with foil, at room temperature. Reheat, covered with foil, in 300°F oven for 25 minutes, then remove the foil and continue reheating for 15 to 20 minutes more, or until warmed through.

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lowest position; preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• For the filling: Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons water and the lemon juice. In a large bowl, combine the blackberries, sugar and lemon zest (Depending on the sweetness of the blackberries, start with 1/3 cup sugar and add more as needed.) Pour the cornstarch mixture over the berries; toss to coat. Pour the filling into the prepared baking pan.
• For the crust: Combine the flour, almonds, sugar, salt and butter in a food processor. Process until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing until the dough begins to pull from the sides of the bowl. Gather the dough together on a floured work surface and pat it into a rectangle.
• Roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle that measures about 11-by-15 inches. Transfer the crust to the baking pan, laying it directly on the blackberry filling. (Any overhanging crust can be rolled inward.) Prick the crust a couple times with a fork.
• Bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is thick, 35 to 45 minutes. If the top starts to get too dark, cover it with aluminum foil and continue cooking.
• Spoon the cobbler onto plates and serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.
