    Made this as a peach cobbler with 2.5lb of peaches (increased to accomodate the pits). The vanilla ice cream is a must, and serve the cobbler warm.

    Make this all the time. Really easy and delicious with vanilla ice cream.

    This made a delicious dessert using grocery store blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. I made a couple of changes based on the other reviews. I tasted my berries and increased the sugar by 2 tablespoons to balance the tartness level. And I increased the cobbler topping by 1/2 - as written there wouldn't have been enough dough. Using mixed berries meant I didn't need to plan ahead and ripen fruit over days, so it was a nice last minute option.

    I made this for breakfast using mostly blackberries along with a handful of blueberries. I liked the tartness of the berries, but my older son still found it too sweet - maybe it was the topping, which is sweeter than plain biscuits? We also served it with creme fraiche, a winning combination for the adults and my younger son. As Rradishes wrote, there doesn't seem to be enough dough for the amount of berries; I would try increasing it by half. I only baked mine for 45 minutes. The filling was still a little soupy, but it was fully cooked and delicious nonetheless.

    I wasn't crazy about this. It was too tart (I used 1/3 blackberries, 1/3 raspberries and 1/3 blueberries), there wasn't enough biscuit (and it was a bit tough). I think I may be ruined after making the Smitten Kitchen Magic Apple Plum Cobbler; nothing quite compares to that one.

    Very easy, but little dough to berry ratio. Some might like that, but the dough was quite good so i might increase the amount next time.

    This was the recipe I was looking for. Not too sweet or too rich & a good proportion of fruit to dough . Very quick & easy. I used a mix of red & black raspberries. I added a little over 3/4 c sugar to berries as my raspberries were tart.

    This was a tasty, basic cobbler. It comes together very quickly (as promised). I used frozen blueberries plus one basket of fresh raspberries, which seemed to work well, though I wish I had added a little bit more sugar. Mine came out looking like a traditional cobbler--the pic in the book makes the dough look a little more like a sponge cake. Served with ice cream for dessert, and creme fraiche for breakfast :-)
