Salted Blackberry Peach Cobbler
One big change since my last post… We moved South! Our little family of five is now based out of Greenville, South Carolina. We’ve been here since mid-April and are loving it! Today we checked out a farmer’s market down the road, and I was able to grab a delicious armload of peaches and blackberries. Here is a simple cobbler recipe I come back to again and again. The cobbler batter goes on the bottom, and the caramelized peaches and blackberries go on top, creating and ooey gooey crumbly bite. Let me know how much you love it in the comments!
SALTED BLACKBERRY AND PEACH COBBLER
Serves 8, prep time: 10 minutes, cook time: 40-45 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
Fruit Filling:
5 large peaches with skin removed
1 cup fresh blackberries
1 T lime or lemon juice
½ cup white sugar
2 t cornstarch
¼ t salt
¼ t pumpkin pie spice cinnamon works fine too
Batter Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 cup white sugar
2 t baking soda
¼ t pumpkin pie spice
¼ t salt
¾ cup milk
Additional Ingredients:
5 T butter
Flaky sea salt
1 T raw sugar
DIRECTIONS:
1.) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Once at temperature, add 5 T of butter cut into pats onto the base of a large pie pan. Allow the butter to melt.
2.) Remove the skin of 5 peaches. Break the peaches apart with your hands, or core and cube. Add the peaches to a sauce pan over medium heat along with the blackberries, citrus juice, sugar, cornstarch and salt. Cook on medium heat for 4-5 minutes until the sauce is thickened. Remove from heat.
3.) Mix the dry ingredients of the batter in a large bowl. Slowly drizzle in the milk until it creates a thick but fluffy mixture.
4.) Pour the batter on top of the melted butter. Next, ladle on the peach and blackberry mixture and its juices.
5.) Bake the cobbler for 35 minutes. Remove the cobbler and add in a few additional berries. I like to slice them in half lengthwise and gently place on top. Sprinkle on the raw sugar, then return the pie plate to the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the batter is all the way cooked through.
6.) Sprinkle flaky salt on top of the final product. Serve warm with ice cream for the perfect summer treat.
