Peach Cobbler

I don't make Cobbler often because its such a personal item. Seems that most people make their cobbler different. This is how WE make Cobbler but remember food is the most fun when you add a personal touch.

The easiest way to peel peaches is to flash boil the Peaches. I boil water, place the peaches in for about 30 seconds, then place them in a ice water bath. The ice water bath will shock them and keep the peach flesh from cooking, but the peach skin will be so easy to peel that you can peel the skin off my hand!

Ingredients

6 peaches (about 5 cups) peeled cored and sliced

2 teaspoons of butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons cornstarch

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 nutmeg

1/2 cinnamon

Instructions

Add the sliced peaches, dry ingredients to a saucepan and stir to combine.  Cook on medium heat for just a few minutes, until the sugar is dissolved and helps to bring out juices from the peaches. Remove from heat and set aside.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled

1/4 cup boiling water In a large bowl, combine you pastry dry ingredients. Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.

 Place peaches in your preferred pan and drop spoonfuls of topping over them.

I normally sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top Bake at 425 until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.
