Mixed Berry Cookie Cobbler

Imagine saucy mixed berries with a hint of citrus, covered in a buttery cookie crust and finished with a dollop of homemade whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Sounds like heaven right? This cobbler comes together so easily in a cast iron skillet. Bake it in the oven or smoke it on the Traeger. Either way it would make a perfect dessert for a summer party or patriotic event.

Method
 

  1. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. It is always smart to have an oven thermometer to measure the exact temperature of your oven.
  2. Next lightly grease a 9 inch cast iron pan with olive oil or avocado oil and set aside.
  3. Now begin making the cookie top by adding melted butter and sugars to a large mixing bowl.
  4. Whisk the butter and sugars together until combined.
  5. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract next.
  6. Then in a smaller mixing bowl add the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt and whisk with a fork till incorporated.
  7. Dump the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and fold them into each other using a rubber spatula until the last bit of flour disappears.
  8. The cookie topping is done so set it aside to prepare the berries.
  9. Grab the prepared 9-inch cast iron pan and add frozen mixed berries, orange juice, half of the orange zest and 1 tablespoon of sugar to it. Mix it all together gently with your hands. Then add in 1 tablespoon of flour and use your hands again to toss the berries in the flour until evenly coated.
  10. Get the cookie dough and using a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the cookie dough, flatten it out with your hand and place on top of the berries.
  11. Continue scooping and flattening the cookie dough until all the dough has been used and the berries are coated nicely with a buttery cookie top.
  12. Drizzle a light amount of heavy cream over the top of the cookie dough and lightly sprinkle some organic cane sugar over the top before placing in the oven to bake.
  13. Bake the cobbler at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-33 minutes or until the berries are bubbling and the cookie top is a nice and golden brown and cooked through.
  14. Remove the Cookie Cobbler from the oven to cool for a few minutes while preparing the homemade whipped cream or topping with store bought ice cream.
  15. To make homemade whipped add heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powder sugar to a medium mixing bowl.
  16. With a hand mixer whip the cream to soft and silky peaks.
  17. Serve a dollop of cream over the warm cobbler and sprinkle the top with a little bit of left-over orange zest.
  18. Serve and enjoy.
