peach cobbler
My husband and I are both from the south, so that means there are some foods, like grits and peach cobbler, that hold a special place in our hearts. He is particularly fond of peaches and we had plenty of canned and jarred, so I made a peach cobbler recently.
I had tried different recipes in the past and the one I used tonight so far surpasses the others. It was simple and did what the directions said it would do – that the batter would rise to the top and browned nicely. It also didn’t seem to take as long to bake as a previous recipe.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 cups fresh peaches, pitted and sliced
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups water
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9×9 inch glass baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and 1/2 cup sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder. Add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
- Spread mixture evenly into baking dish .
- If using canned peaches, drain thoroughly, reserving the juice. Spoon fruit over batter.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon and 1/4 cup sugar. Pour fruit juice or water over the top.
- Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 to 55 minutes. During baking the fruit and juice go to the bottom and the batter rises.
