Instructions

1
|
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2
|
Add in the cubed butter and toss to coat. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients by squishing the cubes between your fingers until they are quarter-sized.
3
|
Pour in a small amount of the buttermilk and gently mix the dough with a spoon. Continue adding the buttermilk in a little at a time, aiming for the dry spots.
4
|
Shape the dough into a disk and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge for at least one hour.
5
|
Towards the end of the chill time, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
6
|
Once the dough has rested in the fridge, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to about 1" thick.
7
|
Cut the dough into quarters, then layer them on top of each other. Roll the dough out again to 1" thick, and repeat this cutting & stacking process two more times.
8
|
After the last stack, roll the dough out to a rough 8" circle about 1" in thickness. Use a knife or bench scraper to cut 9 pieces. Place the dough on a small baking tray or cutting board and freeze for at least 15 minutes.
9
|
Meanwhile, make the filling.
10
|
In a large mixing bowl, combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla.
11
|
Pour the filling into a 9" pie dish.
12
|
Arrange the biscuits on top of the filling. Brush each with a small amount of buttermilk, and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
13
|
Place the pie dish on a large baking sheet. Bake the cobbler for 15 minutes until the biscuits are lightly golden on top, then turn the temperature down to 350 degrees F and bake for another 1 hour - 1 hour 15 minutes until the juices are bubbling and the biscuits are baked through. You may need to tent the cobbler with aluminum foil towards the end to prevent the biscuits from getting too dark.
14
|
Allow the cobbler to cool for at least hour to allow the filling to thicken up. Enjoy with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Don't Thaw Your Frozen Berries 🫐
    Keep berries frozen until just before mixing into the filling—this prevents them from breaking down and releasing too much liquid, ensuring a thick, jammy consistency instead of a runny cobbler.
  • Macerate with Lemon for Brightness 🍋
    Let the lemon juice and zest sit with the berries and sugar for 10-15 minutes before adding cornstarch to allow the citrus to fully infuse and brighten the deep berry flavors.
  • Keep Biscuit Ingredients Ice Cold ❄️
    Chill your flour, butter, and buttermilk before mixing—cold ingredients create steam pockets that result in flakier, more tender biscuits with better lift.
  • Use Turbinado Sugar for Textural Contrast ✨
    Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top of biscuits just before baking; these larger crystals won't dissolve completely and provide a delightful crunchy sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the soft interior.
  • Rest the Cobbler Before Serving 🛑
    Allow the baked cobbler to cool for 15-20 minutes after removing from the oven so the filling can set slightly, making it easier to scoop while still warm and perfect for ice cream topping.
