Ingredients

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ cup crème fraîche
  • 6 cups fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add butter; using your fingertips, incorporate until only pea-size lumps remain. Gently mix in crème fraîche. Knead in bowl until a biscuit-like dough forms, 5-7 turns (overmixing will make dough tough).

  2. 2.

    Combine remaining 1 cup sugar, remaining 3 tablespoons flour, berries, juice, and zest in a large bowl. Toss to coat. Pour into an 8x8x2" glass baking dish or divide among six 6-ounce ramekins. Tear biscuit topping into quarter-size crumbles; scatter over berries.

    5 min

  3. 3.

    Bake cobbler until juices are thick and bubbling and topping is cooked through and deep golden brown, 20-25 minutes for ramekins or 45-50 minutes for baking dish. Let cool for at least 1 hour.
