Mixed Berry Cobbler - Tuesdays with Dorie

Mixed Berry Cobbler

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie selection was picked by Beth of Our Sweet Life. A perfect summer dessert (that can be made all year) – Mixed Berry Cobbler (page 416 of Dorie’s book).

I used one bag of Trader Joe's Frozen Mixed Berries (blueberry, raspberry and blackberry) and a few more frozen blueberries in order to get 5 cups of berries. Dorie says you shouldn't use too many strawberries in the mix - those guys are too watery. I filled 8 ramekins but could have probably made 10.

I added 1/8 teaspoon of ground ginger and cinnamon each to the dry mixture. In addition, about 3 tablespoons of diced crystallized ginger went into the mix.

I also topped the cobbler with a mixture of sugar, cinnamon and ground ginger. Fresh from the oven, the cobblers had a bit of spillage.

I baked the fruit by itself for 20 minutes, and then popped the biscuit on top for another 25 minutes.

This is delicious warm from the oven...it is worth it to nuke it for a few seconds if you don't have time to warm them in the oven.

Don't forget to check out other Tuesday with Dorie creations! It is always fun to see other people's take. Next week's recipe: Apple Cheddar Scones

P.S. My bad if your blog reader got this twice. I messed up scheduling the posting for 12:01 on Tuesday (hence the name, Tuesdays with Dorie) and it went up to early - man, I caught it within seconds but technology is always faster than me. It is now scheduled correctly, but apologizes if you got it twice.
