Ingredients

• 4 medium Pears (ripe, peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 3 medium Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and butter a 9-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears and apples with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss everything together until the fruit is well coated.

Step 3

Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 4

In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 6

Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until just combined to form a soft dough.

Step 7

Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the fruit mixture, leaving a few small gaps for the fruit to bubble through.

Step 8

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling.

Step 9

Let the cobbler cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
