Peach, Plum and Blackberry Cobbler

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine fruit, 2/3 cup sugar and tapioca in 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish and toss to blend. Bake until tender and bubbling thickly, about 50 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.

   Step 2

   Meanwhile, mix 3/4 cup flour, baking powder, salt and 1 tablespoon sugar in medium bowl. Add lemon peel and 3 tablespoons butter; using fingertips, rub in until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cream; stir until moist clumps form. Gather into ball. Using floured hands, pat out dough on floured surface to 6-inch square. Cut into 6 equal rectangles.

   Step 3

   Mix brown sugar, spices and 2 tablespoons butter; using fingertips, rub in until topping mixture begins to clump together.

   Step 4

   Place biscuits atop hot cobbler. Top with brown sugar mixture. Bake until biscuits are golden, about 25 minutes. Cool 30 minutes. Serve with cream.
