Plum Cobbler With Cinnamon Biscuits Recipes

EASY PLUM COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the plums, brown sugar, brandy, grated apple, cornstarch and cinnamon. Spoon the mixture into a 9" or 10" cast iron skillet or a lightly greased casserole dish.
• In a medium mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt and granulated sugar. Add the butter and using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add the cream and stir with a fork just until moistened. Gently press the mixture together using a spatula, forming a loose dough. Crumble the dough on top of the plum mixture. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of coarse sugar.
• Bake until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 45 minutes. Serve warm topped with ice cream if desired.

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.
