A cozy berry cobbler baked on the grill with a tender biscuit topping and juicy mixed berries, perfect for extending summer evenings with a smoky twist.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen; blackberries, raspberries, blueberries)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (can swap half for whole wheat or almond flour for gluten-free)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ⅓ cup milk (dairy or almond milk)
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sugar for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  1. Prep the grill for indirect heat at about 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine mixed berries, ½ cup sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir gently and let sit.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, ¼ cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits.
  5. Add milk and stir gently until just combined to form a soft dough.
  6. Pour berry filling into a cast-iron skillet or grill-safe dish, spreading evenly.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the berries, leaving some gaps.
  8. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the biscuit topping.
  9. Place skillet on the cooler side of the grill, close lid, and bake for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden and filling bubbles.
  10. Remove from grill and let rest 10 minutes before serving.
  11. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Keep grill temperature steady at 350°F and use indirect heat to avoid burning. Use cold butter for flaky topping. If topping browns too fast, move to cooler spot or reduce heat. Let cobbler rest 10 minutes before serving. For flare-ups, place foil under skillet. A kitchen torch can crisp topping if needed. Frozen berries should be thawed and drained to avoid soggy filling. For gluten-free, use almond flour; for dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and milk with plant-based milk.
