Ingredients
4cupsfresh blueberries
2cupsfresh cherriespitted and sliced in half
1cupsugardivided
1stick8 tablespoons very cold butter cut into chunks
1/2cupall purpose flour
1/2teaspoonbaking powder
1/4teaspoonsalt
1large egg
1/2teaspoonvanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9 inch baking pan and set aside.
Combine fruit in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the sugar and toss to fully coat the fruit. Transfer fruit to the prepared baking pan and spread out to fill the pan.
In the bowl of a food processor add remaining 1/2 cup sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Pulse a few times to combine. Add cold butter and pulse for 15-20 seconds until the mixture resembles course crumbs. Transfer to a mixing bowl; add egg and vanilla and stir to form a soft dough.
Drop dough by heaping tablespoons full over the fruit. Do not spread it out or flatten it down. It's okay if all the fruit is not covered.
Bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until dough is golden brown. (See photo above for reference)
Serve immediately on it's own, or top with ice cream or a drizzle of heavy cream.
Notes
No food processer? No problem. Simple rub butter into the flour/sugar mixture with your fingers until mixture resembles course crumbs.If you need to store any leftovers make sure the cobbler is completely cool and storing in the refrigerator for a day or two. Warm it in the oven or microwave before serving.
