Sweet pears balance cranberries in this perfectly fall cobbler. While apples usually take the spotlight in fall desserts, give pears a try with fresh cranberries from the local harvest.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and butter a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate.
For the cobbler dough: Whisk together the ﬂour, 6 tablespoons of the sugar, the baking powder, and salt. Scatter the butter cubes over the ﬂour mixture and cut in with a pastry cutter until the dough looks like coarse cornmeal. Stir together ½ cup of the cream and the egg yolk. Add to the ﬂour mixture and toss with a fork until the ingredients come together.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly ﬂoured surface and knead gently together. Wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
For the ﬁlling: While the dough rests, combine all the ﬁlling ingredients and pour into the baking dish.
Pat the dough out, tear or cut into 3-inch pieces, and place them on the ﬁlling. Brush the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon cream and sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until bubbling and golden. Let cool slightly.
For the vanilla mascarpone whipped topping: Whip together the mascarpone, cream, and vanilla until combined. Add the sugar slowly and beat until ﬂuffy and you have soft peaks. Serve on top of the warm cobbler.
