Pear And Raisin Cobbler Recipes

PEAR AND RAISIN COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a nine-inch round baking dish.
• Mix brown sugar with cornstarch in a large bowl. Fold in pears and raisins, the melted butter and nutmeg. Spoon mixture into baking dish.
• Mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture has a mealy texture. Lightly stir in the milk to form a firm but tender dough.
• Roll out dough on a floured board and cut it into strips one-inch wide. Criss-cross the strips over the fruit. Sprinkle the top with granulated sugar.
• Bake about 40 minutes, until the crust has browned and the filling bubbles. Serve while still warm, with whipped cream.

PEAR COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a round 9x2-inch, 6-cup baking dish.
• Fill a large bowl halfway with water and add lemon juice. Peel all but 1 of the pears. Core and cut all the pears into eighths. Add pear slices to lemon water to keep them from browning.
• Combine egg and milk in a bowl and whisk until combined. Set aside.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons cane sugar, and brown sugar together in a separate bowl. Use a fork to cut cold butter into flour mixture until it resemble pebbles.
• Drain pears and put into a bowl. Sprinkle with corn starch and 1/4 cup cane sugar; toss to coat.
• Pour milk-egg mixture into the flour mixture. Mix batter until just combined. Add pears to the prepared baking dish. Drop batter by spoonful onto the pears.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned on top, about 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
