This Mixed Berry Cobbler is a classic comfort dessert, combining a medley of juicy berries with a golden, buttery cobbler topping. It’s easy to make and perfect when served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream
Berry Filling:
4 cups (620g) mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries)
6 tbsp (90g) unsalted butter, cold & cubed
½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
2 tbsp (20g) cornstarch
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cobbler Topping:
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
¾ cup (180ml) buttermilk (or milk)
¼ cup (60g) melted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 orange
2 tbsp almond flakes (for topping)
For Serving:
Vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or mascarpone cream
Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a 9-inch pie dish.
Prepare Berry Filling: In a bowl, combine berries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla. Toss gently, then transfer to the prepared baking dish.
Make the Cobbler Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and orange zest. Mix until just combined (do not overmix).
Assemble & Bake: Drop spoonfuls of cobbler topping over the berry filling, leaving some gaps. Sprinkle with almond flakes for crunch. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbly. If browning too quickly, loosely cover with aluminum foil halfway through baking.
Cool & Serve: Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with ice cream, whipped cream, or mascarpone cream.
If you prefer a more tart dessert, you can reduce the sugar in the berry filling.
For a crunchy topping, you can substitute the almond flakes with chopped pecans or walnuts.
This cobbler is best served warm.
