Lunch: Cherry Cobbler

No fruit captures the essence of summer quite like cherries. Bring out its sweet-tart flavor by baking it into this cobbler.

Ingredients

3 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. Coarse salt
1 c. sugar
3/4 c. very cold unsalted butter
2 c. cold heavy cream
3 lb. fresh cherries
4 tsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 cup sugar. Using large holes on a box grater, grate butter into flour mixture. With a fork, stir in cream until dough just comes together. On a floured work surface, roll out dough to a 3/4-inch thickness with a floured rolling pin. With a knife or biscuit cutter, cut out 8 to 12 rounds or squares of dough.
In a bowl, combine cherries, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch, and vanilla. Divide mixture among four 1- to 1 1/2-cup ramekins; top each with 2 to 3 dough pieces. Brush tops with cream. Bake cobblers on a rimmed baking sheet until biscuits are golden and juices are bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through. Let cool 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
