Plum Cobbler With Buttermilk Crust Recipes

PEACH-PLUM COBBLER WITH BUTTERMILK BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
• Prepare the filling: Toss the peaches and plums in a medium bowl with the brown sugar, honey, ginger and salt. Sprinkle in the flour and toss to coat. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
• Make the biscuits: Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter with your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Add the buttermilk and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times to bring it together. Pat into an even 1/4-inch thickness. Cut out the biscuits with a 2-inch-round cookie cutter, rerolling the scraps as needed.
• Arrange the biscuits on top of the filling. Brush with buttermilk and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake until the biscuits are golden and the filling is bubbling, about 50 minutes.

PLUM COBBLER BARS

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine plums and 1 1/2 cups/300 grams granulated sugar. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit releases juices and becomes very tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, place a small plate in the refrigerator to chill. You'll use this later to check the doneness of the jam.
• Purée plum mixture in pot using an immersion blender (be careful of splashing), or remove from pot and purée in a blender or food processor until relatively smooth. Return purée to pot if you removed it, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens and reduces by about half, about 10 minutes. You should end up with about 3 1/2 cups/840 milliliters plum jam. (You can test the doneness by spooning a small amount of the jam onto the chilled plate, returning it to the refrigerator and letting it sit for 2 minutes. It should keep a clean line when you run your finger through it.)
• In a small bowl, whisk remaining 1/3 cup/65 grams granulated sugar with cornstarch to combine. Whisk sugar-cornstarch mixture into jam and cook, stirring occasionally, until it simmers. Simmer for 1 minute, stirring well to prevent scorching. Stir in vanilla extract, and cool plum mixture to room temperature.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees, and line a 9-by-13-inch pan with parchment paper with overhang on all sides. In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Add melted butter and stir until the mixture forms streusel-like crumbs.
• Press 2/3 of crumb mixture into an even layer at bottom of prepared pan. Spread cooled plum jam in an even layer over crust, then sprinkle remaining crumb mixture evenly over top of jam.
• Bake until jam bubbles at edges and streusel is lightly browned, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before slicing into 12 pieces.
