Berry Cobbler Summer Dessert (Printable Recipe)

Sweet berries and golden topping make this a cozy, crowd-pleasing treat any time of year.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

01 - 6 cups mixed berries, fresh or frozen

02 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar

03 - 1 tablespoon cornstarch

04 - 1 teaspoon lemon zest

05 - 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

06 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar

07 - 1 tablespoon baking powder

08 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

09 - 1/2 cup salted butter, frozen and grated

10 - 3/4 cup heavy cream or milk

11 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

12 - 2 tablespoons sanding sugar, optional

01 - Combine mixed berries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and cornstarch in a bowl. Stir to coat evenly and set aside.

02 - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well blended.

03 - Grate frozen butter into the dry mixture and gently combine with a fork or your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.

04 - Mix vanilla extract into heavy cream. Pour into the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.

05 - Transfer berry mixture to a baking dish. Scoop biscuit dough over the top and flatten slightly with a spoon.

06 - Brush biscuit tops with extra cream and sprinkle with sanding sugar if using. Bake at 375°F for 40 to 50 minutes until golden and bubbly.

07 - Let the cobbler rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

01 - Freeze the butter before grating for extra flaky topping texture.

02 - Use very cold cream or milk to maintain dough consistency.

03 - Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly before filling bubbles.

04 - Letting cobbler rest helps thicken the filling and improves texture.

05 - Pre-measure flour by fluffing and spooning it into the measuring cup.
