Spiced Pear Cobbler

Juicy pears are enveloped in a warm medley of cinnamon and nutmeg, topped with a golden, buttery biscuit crust. Perfectly complemented by a scoop of vanilla ice cream, this cobbler transforms simple ingredients into a heartwarming dessert.

Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes
Serves: 6

Ingredients

4 ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 cup all-purpose flour (for biscuit topping)

1/4 cup granulated sugar (for biscuit topping)

1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

1/2 cup whole milk

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a large bowl, combine sliced pears, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, all-purpose flour, and lemon juice. Toss until pears are evenly coated.

3. Transfer the pear mixture into a greased 8-inch baking dish and spread evenly.

4. In another bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

5. Stir in the milk until just combined.

6. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mixture over the pears, covering them as evenly as possible.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are bubbly.

8. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
