If you're making this entire menu, we recommend assembling the cobbler and putting it into the oven just before you begin grilling the steak. That way, the cobbler will be cool enough to serve after you have finished eating the main course and cleared the table. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups plus 1/2 teaspoon sugar |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 1/4 pound nectarines (7 medium), pitted and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges |
3/4 pound blackberries (2 1/2 cups) |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
3/4 cup whole milk |
accompaniment: lightly sweetened whipped cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Whisk together 1 1/4 cups sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl, then add nectarines and blackberries and toss to combine well. Transfer to buttered baking dish and bake in middle of oven until hot, 10 to 15 minutes.
3. While fruit bakes, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in another large bowl, then blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and stir just until a dough forms.
4. Drop dough onto hot fruit mixture in 6 mounds, then sprinkle dough with remaining 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Bake cobbler in middle of oven until top is golden, 25 to 35 minutes.
