Blackberry Very Peachy Cobbler

Luscious.

That would be my word to describe this.

Add some ice cream.

Die.

Go to heaven.

But only if they have this.

Otherwise, consider. . . oh silly, ice cream won’t last in Hell.

Make this.

INGREDIENTS:

1 pint of blackberries
5 peaches (give or take) About 5 cups peeled and sectioned. Yes I know it’s a pain, but otherwise it gets a bit chewy.
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt
1/4 C flour

FOR THE BISCUITS:

1 c + 2 tbsp flour
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 stick butter frozen
1/4 c sour cream
2 tbsp heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS:

Heat oven to 375°
Whisk the dry ingredients for the biscuits together.
Grate the butter using the large grate opening into the flour, toss with fingers
Add the sour cream and heavy cream and mix with hands until it comes together.
Knead into a disk and pat out our roll gently into a rectangle.
Cut into about 8 pieces. (do this on parchment paper and lift onto a cookie sheet and refrigerate until done with the filling and ready to put in oven.
Mix the fruit gently with the rest of the filling ingredients and place in a 9 x 9 or 12 x 12 baking dish. Lay the biscuit dough on top separating between each piece.
Brush with a little extra sour cream and dust with some sanding sugar if you have it.
Place in oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes.

SERVES: 8

NOTES: Don’t overdo the blackberries since you will lose the flavor of the peaches. You can not peel the peaches if you desire but they become tough, so I like them removed. You could easily substitute blueberries, strawberries, or cherries, but keep the ratios the same to keep he peach flavor up. You might want to add a 1/4 tsp of peach extract and stir into the peaches first. Depends on how flavorful your fruit is. And technically this is not a cobbler but who cares!
