Skillet Blueberry Peach Cobbler Recipes

Steps:

• For the filling: Mix sugar with cornstarch and toss that with peaches and blueberries. Transfer them to the bottom of a lightly buttered shallow baking dish (9 or 10-inch round pyrex pie plate or 8-inch square one) Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• For the dough: In a food processor combine the flour, baking powder and salt; cut in chilled butter and process with cream to make a
• dough. Roll out to about 1/2-inch thick into a shape to fit your baking pan. Or cut into biscuits and set biscuits, touching each other over fruit. Drizzle biscuits with melted butter and sugar and bake for 40 minutes or until biscuits are golden and fruit underneath bubbling. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature with cream or ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Melt the butter in a 10 or 12-inch cast-iron skillet.
• Add blueberries (if using frozen, let fruit thaw at room temperature first) and 2 tablespoons of the sugar.
• Stir gently and cook just until the berries begin to soften. If mixture seems at all dry, add the water.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the milk and stir to make a thick batter.
• Spoon batter onto the fruit.
• Drag a spoon or spatula through batter to make streaks of white and blue. DON'T mix thoroughly.
• Bake until a tester inserted in the biscuit top comes out clean and the fruit is bubbling around the edges, about 20 minutes.
• Serve with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
• Note: You can make this with fresh or frozen peaches or other berries as well.
• If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use an ovenproof dish. You can heat the butter and fruit in a skillet and then scrape them into a baking dish to continue.
• The cobbler is best served warm directly from the pan. If you have leftovers or plan to keep for a while, transfer to a nonreactive container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the filling:
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, and cornstarch. Add the peaches, and blueberries, and mix, coating the fruit evenly with the sugar mixture. Toss with the lemon juice and zest, if desired. Put the fruit filling in a cast iron skillet and place in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. In the meantime, make the biscuit dough.
• For the topping:
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Using a food processor, a pastry cutter, or your fingertips incorporate the chilled butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the buttermilk and stir just until moistened.
• Carefully remove the skillet from the oven, and drop 6 to 8 (1/2 cup) portions of biscuit dough on top of the cooked fruit, spacing the mounds about a 1/2-inch apart. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F and bake until the biscuits are golden brown on top and the fruit is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
• Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt, lemon juice and zest, and the vanilla bean seeds.
• Add the blueberries and peaches and use a spatula to toss until well coated.
• Transfer the filling to a 10-inch (25 cm) cast-iron skillet. Refrigerate until ready to top.
• Make the biscuits: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Using a cheese grater, grate the cold butter into the flour mixture. Working quickly, use your hands to toss the butter in the flour.
• Pour 1 cup (245 ml) of buttermilk into the flour mixture and use a spatula to stir into a shaggy dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. If the dough looks too wet, dust with a bit more flour. Form the dough into a 5x7-inch (12 x 17 cm) rectangle, and sprinkle with more flour. Fold the dough in half, then roll out again. Repeat 4-5 more times to build the flaky layers of the biscuits.
• Add a few tablespoons of flour to a small bowl. Dip a 2-inch (5 cm) round cookie cutter in the flour, then punch out 16 biscuits, pressing the cutter straight down. Reroll the dough as needed to cut out more biscuits.
• Arrange the biscuits on top of the fruit filling, making sure they are touching. Brush the biscuits with the remaining tablespoon of buttermilk and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Refrigerate until ready to grill.
• Preheat the grill to 350°F (180°C).
• Place the cast-iron skillet on the grill and shut the lid. Grill the cobbler for 1 hour 15 minutes, until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
• Let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature, then serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
• Enjoy!
