Blackberry Peach Cobbler
(Can you tell Gwen and I got a bunch of peaches and blackberries last weekend? We're both looking for ways to use them all)
Gourmet Sept. 2005
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 1/5 c. plus 1 tsp. sugar
1 1/4 lb blackberries (about 5 cups)
2 lb. peaches, (6 medium), peeled, pitted and cut into wedges
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 sticks cold, unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1 c. plus 3 Tbsp. whole milk
Preheat oven to 425 F. Butter a 13x9x2 glass or ceramic baking dish. (I skipped the buttering step)
Whisk together cornstarch and 1 1/2 c. sugar in a large bowl. Then add peaches and blackberries and toss to coat. Transfer to baking dish, bake 10-15 min.
While fruit bakes, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt in another large bowl, then blend in butter with pastry blender or fingers. Add milk and stir until dough forms.
Drop dough on hot fruit mixture in 12 mounds, then sprinkle dough with remaining sugar. Bake until golden brown, 25-35 min. Serve warm. (good with vanilla ice cream)
