Nectarine Cobbler

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds (about 907 grams) ½-inch-thick sliced pitted nectarines or other stone fruit (about 7 cups)
  • ¾ cup (150 grams) plus 4 tablespoons (48 grams) granulated sugar, divided
  • ¼ cup (32 grams) cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon (15 grams) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon (3 grams) kosher salt, divided
  • 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (55 grams) old-fashioned oats
  • 2 teaspoons (10 grams) baking powder
  • 5 tablespoons (70 grams) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ½ cup (120 grams) whole milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 1½- to 2-quart baking dish with baking spray with flour.
  • In a large bowl, stir together fruit, ¾ cup (150 grams) sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) salt until well combined. Pour mixture into prepared pan.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, 2 tablespoons (24 grams) sugar, baking powder, and remaining ½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) salt. Using a pastry blender or your hands, cut in cold butter until butter pieces are pea-size; stir in milk. Using a 3-tablespoon spring-loaded scoop, scoop dough, and drop onto fruit mixture in pan. Using your hands, slightly flatten dough, if desired. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons (24 grams) sugar onto dough.
  • Bake until topping is golden brown and fruit mixture is thick and bubbly, 40 to 45 minutes, covering with foil during final 20 minutes of baking to prevent excess browning. Let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
