Peach-Plum Cobbler With Buttermilk Biscuits
- Unsalted butter, for the baking dish
- 2 pounds peaches or nectarines, peeled, pitted and thinly sliced
- 1 pound plums, peeled, pitted and thinly sliced
- 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 2/3 cup buttermilk, plus more for brushing
- Coarse sugar, for sprinkling
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
- Prepare the filling: Toss the peaches and plums in a medium bowl with the brown sugar, honey, ginger and salt.
- Sprinkle in the flour and toss to coat.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- Make the biscuits: Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
- Cut in the butter with your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter.
- Add the buttermilk and stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times to bring it together.
- Pat into an even 1/4-inch thickness.
- Cut out the biscuits with a 2-inch-round cookie cutter, rerolling the scraps as needed.
- Arrange the biscuits on top of the filling.
- Brush with buttermilk and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake until the biscuits are golden and the filling is bubbling, about 50 minutes.
