How to Make Cheddar Pear Cobbler
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Drain the pears, reserving 1/2 cup of the syrup.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Stir in the reserved pear syrup and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the syrup thickens and boils. Boil for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and gently stir in the drained pears.
- Pour the pear mixture into a greased 9-inch square baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1/2 cup milk until just combined.
- Spoon the dough evenly over the pear filling.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
