Mixed Berry Cobbler with Biscuit Topping

A warm, jammy berry filling topped with tender, flaky biscuit dumplings — simple, comforting, and perfect for any season.

  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 56 cups mixed berries (fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Toss the mixed berries with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla. Spread the fruit mixture evenly in a 9×13-inch or similar baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in cold heavy cream until just combined — do not overmix.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the berry mixture, leaving small gaps for steam to escape. Sprinkle biscuits with coarse sugar if desired.
  6. Bake for about 30–35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and the berries are bubbling. Allow the cobbler to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use a mix of berries for depth of flavor. Let the cobbler rest after baking for a thicker filling.
