Drop-Biscuit Pear and Dried Cherry Cobbler

Serves8
Method

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Toss pears, cherries, sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt, and cloves in a large bowl. Transfer to a 13x9” baking dish.
  2. Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and ¾ cup sugar in a medium bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until a coarse meal forms. Gradually mix in ⅓ cup hot water until a soft wet dough forms (a few lumps are okay). Drop clumps of dough over filling; sprinkle with remaining 2 Tbsp. sugar.
  3. Bake until filling is bubbling and top is golden brown and cooked through, 40–45 minutes; let cool. Serve with ice cream.
