Name: Blackberry Peach Cobbler
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 1 1/2 hr (includes cooling)
Yield: Makes 12 servings
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons cornstarch; 1 1/2 cups plus 1 teaspoon sugar; 1 1/4 lb blackberries (5 cups); 2 lb peaches (6 medium), peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges; 3 cups all-purpose flour; 1 tablespoon baking powder; 1 teaspoon salt; 2 sticks (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes; 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons whole milk

If you're making this entire menu in a single oven, we recommend baking the cobbler ahead of time — that way you can reheat it while clearing the table. Otherwise, you can just whisk together the dry ingredients beforehand, but you'll have to excuse yourself during dinner to assemble and bake the dessert.

Cooks' note:

Cobbler can be baked 6 hours ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then chilled, covered. Before serving, let stand at room temperature 1 hour, then reheat in a preheated 350°F oven until warm, about 20 minutes.

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.
