Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pulse flour, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer mixture to a large bowel and add heavy cream in a slow, steady stream mixing with a wooden spoon until dough just comes together. Divide dough int 9 pieces and loosely form each into a ball.

Whisk together cinnamon, sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl. Add berries; toss gently to coat. Transfer mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish. Top berries with dough balls, spacing evenly. Brush dough with heavy cream, and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until berries are bubbling in center and biscuits are golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer dish to a wire rack, and let cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Serve with ice cream if desired.
