Blueberry Peach Skillet Cobbler

Blueberries & peaches are two things my grandma used to bake together frequently, and they compliment each other so well in this skillet cobbler recipe!
Course: Dessert
Keyword: baking, dessert
Servings: 6

Ingredients

For the filling:

  • 5-6 ripe peaches skinned & sliced
  • 1-2 cups blueberries fresh, or if using frozen allow to thaw and strain before use
  • ¼ cup bourbon (the alcohol cooks off, swap for maple syrup if desired)
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

For the cobbler:

  • cup flour all purpose
  • tsp baking powder
  • 12 tbsp cold butter (1½ sticks)
  • cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • cinnamon sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. In a 10” cast iron skillet, add your sliced peaches & blueberries. Pour the bourbon over top, followed by both sugars, corn starch and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat until caramelized, about 5-7 mins.
  • While that is caramelizing, prepare your cobbler mix. Add the flour & baking powder to a large bowl, whisk until combined. Add your 12 tbsp cold butter, cubed or grated, and combine until fine crumbs with your hands or a pastry cutter. Make a well and your milk + vanilla mixture. Fold in until a wet, sticky dough has formed.
  • Dollop the sticky mixture in clumps over the peaches in the skillet, leaving gaps in between each one.
  • Bake for 25-35 mins, until golden brown. Allow to cool at least 10 mins before serving. Enjoy warm w a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Notes

The bourbon aids in caramelizing while also adding depth of delicious flavors!
