Summer Berry Cobbler With Vanilla Bean Whipped Cream Recipes

SUMMER BERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine berries with sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine. Spread berry mixture out on a 10-inch tart or gratin dish. Dollop spoonfuls of scone dough evenly over the top of the fruit; leave a border around the edge of the dish for spreading. Drizzle the surface with melted butter and dust with sugar. Set on a cookie sheet and bake for 25 to 35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit juices bubbling.
• Cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve with heavy cream, whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
• In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar; mix thoroughly. Cut in butter using 2 forks or a pastry blender. The butter pieces should be coated with flour and resemble crumbs.
• In another bowl, mix buttermilk and egg together, and then add to the flour mixture. Mix just to incorporate, do no overwork the dough.
• Roll blueberries in flour to coat, this will help prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the scone when baked. Fold the blueberries into batter, being careful not to bruise.

SUMMER BERRY COBBLER WITH SPECIAL WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• To make the cream: Chill the bowl and whisk of a stand mixer in the freezer for about 30 minutes. If they are not very cold, the cream will not whip properly. Skim the solidified coconut cream off the chilled coconut milk and transfer the solids to the bowl of a stand mixer. Do not include any of the coconut water, even if you have to leave behind a little margin of coconut cream (even a little bit of coconut water can harm your results).
• Add the powdered sugar and vanilla bean seeds, and whip for a few minutes until the mixture begins to stiffen and turn into whipped cream. Work quickly so everything stays cold. Chill whipped cream in a covered container in the refrigerator. It should firm up even more as it sits in the refrigerator for the next few hours or overnight.
• To make the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate small bowl, whisk the oil and nondairy milk, and add it to the flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until combined and the consistency is sticky and dough-like. Do not over-mix.
• To prepare the fruit: In a medium bowl, whisk sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Add berries and toss with a large spoon until the berries are coated with the sugar mixture.
• To assemble and bake the cobbler: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pour the berries into a 9- x 13-inch baking pan or distribute evenly into 8 ramekins. Using a tablespoon, scoop lumps of dough on top of berries. Brush the top of the dough with nondairy milk and generously sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 45 minutes or until dough is thoroughly cooked and lightly browned on top. Be sure to rotate after 20 minutes so that it bakes evenly.
