- Sour Cream Cobbler Dough Recipe
- 1 2/3 cup flour
- 1/3 cup sugar or brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoon cold butter, cut into small pieces
- 1-2 dough flavorings ( ½ teaspoon citrus zest, ¼ cup fine cornmeal, ¾ teaspoon cinnamon, ½ cup chopped nuts)
- ¾ cup sour cream
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pulse to blend ingredients. Add the butter and pulse until they are the size of small peas. Dump the mixture into a mixing bowl. Add any flavorings and stir until dispersed. Add the sour cream. Using a rubber spatula, gently smear the ingredients together until the dough begins to form large, soft, moist clumps. Bring the dough together in an 8” log. Divide the log into 10 equal pieces. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- Put the sugar, flour, salt, and filling flavorings into a large bowl. Add the fruit and toss. Pile the fruit into a 9”x13” dish (or one of similar volume). Place the dough pieces atop the fruit. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bake until filling is bubbling and the topping is browned, 50-60 min.
- Let the cobbler sit at least 20 min. before serving to allow juices to settle.
