As I write this, I can hear the crack of thunder shaking my house as the rain comes down in sheets outside.
It’s the perfect end of summer/beginning of fall thunderstorm to kick off the beginning of September, and that just happens to be exactly what this dessert is all about.
I love the combination of stone fruit in this cobbler so, so much.
The peaches are everything to remind you of those late summer vibes, with the vibrant sweet juices running down your chin every time you bite into a ripe one.
The plums however, those have a sweet and slightly tart element to them, filled with complex flavors that remind me so strongly of fall.
When you put the two together, you get an explosion of fruity flavors that gently falls across your taste buds.
It helps even more that these flavorful fruits are combined with a reduced white wine sauce that is both sweet and tart from the addition of lemon.
All of this is topped with homemade biscuits that are oh-so easy to make and come out perfectly flaky and golden brown.
You honestly won’t be able to stop making this dessert every single week as you roll on into the fall season.
