Print Recipe

A quick and easy berry cobbler with a flaky biscuit topping, perfect for end-of-summer gatherings, served warm with vanilla bean ice cream.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (600g) mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries), fresh or frozen
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour (for topping)
  • 2 tablespoons (15g) all-purpose flour (for thickening filling)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 2/3 cup (160ml) milk or buttermilk, room temperature
  • 1 pint (480ml) vanilla bean ice cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine mixed berries, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and fresh lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the berries without crushing them.
  3. Transfer the berry mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. Set aside.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Cut cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter bits.
  6. Pour in milk or buttermilk and stir just until combined. Dough should be sticky but not runny.
  7. Drop biscuit dough by spoonfuls evenly over the berry filling, allowing some berries to peek through.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden brown and berry filling is bubbly.
  9. Cool slightly for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  10. Serve warm with generous scoops of vanilla bean ice cream on top.

Notes

Keep butter cold for flaky biscuit topping. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil. Use frozen berries straight from freezer without thawing. Lemon juice brightens berry flavor. Avoid overmixing dough to keep topping tender.
