Ingredients

Filling:

2 cups fresh Bing cherries, pitted

2 cups pineapple chunks

1/2 cup granulated sugar

3 tablespoons cornstarch

1/2 cup orange juice

1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Pinch salt

Crust:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling

1/2 tablespoon baking powder

3/4 tablespoon salt

8 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup buttermilk

3/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

  1. For the filling: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a medium saucepan over moderate heat. Cook all filling ingredients, stirring occasionally, until sugar begins to dissolve, about 3 minutes. Spoon filling into a ceramic or glass baking dish. 
  2. For the crust: Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Mix in the butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in buttermilk and heavy cream with fork until just combined (do not overmix). Spoon dough over pineapple cherry filling, leaving space between mounds. Sprinkle sugar on topping. Bake until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm.

I made this tonight and the flavor of the filling was very good. I added a tablespoon or two of bourbon whiskey after my initial tasting. We have a grown-up tastes here. The biscuit amount was for either an inch and a half of filling with an 8 x 11 dish or a 4 x 4 and I used 1/2 the amount of mix. I looked at the flour and decided to cut the amount in half for 9 biscuits of good proportions.The taste was very good and tender. There was a not too sweet flavor for cherries and little tartness from the pineapple and orange juice. I liked the more fruit layer instead of the thinner fruit with a larger pan. Since there was no pan size given, it is up to you to choose. Sugar on the biscuit was a nice crunch too.
