Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Filling

  • 6 cups raspberries
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Biscuit Topping

  • 1 cup flour
  • 5 tbsp butter (cold and cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 tsp sugar (for sprinkling on top)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, gently toss together the raspberries, 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until the berries are well coated. This mixture will thicken slightly as it cooks and give the cobbler a nice balance of sweetness and tartness.
  2. Make the Biscuit Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, 1 tbsp sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract just until the dough comes together; do not overmix.
  3. Assemble the Cobbler: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the raspberry filling to a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the raspberry mixture, covering as much surface as possible but leaving some fruit exposed. Sprinkle the 3/4 tsp sugar evenly over the biscuit topping for a subtle crunch after baking.
  4. Bake the Cobbler: Place the baking dish on the center rack of the oven and bake for about 30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the fruit filling is bubbling.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes to thicken slightly. Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with a plant-based alternative and use non-dairy milk.
  • To enhance the raspberry flavor, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla or almond extract to the filling.
  • This cobbler can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently before serving.
  • Using frozen raspberries is fine; just thaw and drain excess liquid before using.
