How to Make Old Fashioned Black Cherry Cobbler
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 4 cups pitted black cherries, 1/2 cup flour, and 3/4 cup granulated sugar. Toss gently to coat.
- Pour cherry mixture into an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1/2 cup cold butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 3/4 cup buttermilk all at once and stir gently just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
- The dough will be slightly tough.
- Once the cherries are finished baking, remove the pan from the oven.
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the hot cherries.
- Sprinkle lightly with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
- Return to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream, if desired.
