Cobbler: fruit topped with separate portions of dough

Useful to know

King Arthur’s Easy Peach Cobbler places separate portions of quick dough over fruit. They rise during baking to create an uneven topping. [1]

This is one cobbler version, not the only formula. The dough must cook through rather than merely colour on top. The recipe looks for both a golden topping and bubbling fruit filling. Do not transfer the timing from a fruit crumble simply because both desserts begin with sliced fruit in a baking dish.
