Description
This cobbler reminds me of summer picnics and stained fingers from picking cherries right off the tree. Juicy Bing cherries bubble beneath a golden, biscuit-like crust that’s just the right amount of sweet. It’s easy to make, easier to love, and even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
Bing Cherry Filling:
4 cups pitted Bing cherries (fresh or frozen)
¼ cup water
1½ tbsp cornstarch
⅓ cup sugar
1–2 tsp lemon juice, to taste
Sweet Biscuit Topping:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ cup + 2 tbsp sugar (divided)
3 tbsp cold butter
2 tbsp buttermilk
1 large egg
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Make the Filling: In a saucepan, combine cherries, water, sugar, and lemon juice. Dissolve cornstarch in a little water and stir in. Simmer until thickened. Pour into a baking dish.
Make the Topping: In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and ¼ cup sugar. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Stir in buttermilk and egg just until combined.
Drop spoonfuls of dough over cherry filling. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp sugar.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until topping is golden and filling is bubbling.
Notes
Tart cherries, sweet crust, and warm memories—this cobbler is comfort by the spoonful.
