This peach cobbler adapted from The Joy of Cooking and tastes just like mom's (who didn't use a recipe) so it's one of my favorites. Not too sweet. Biscuit-like topping. Great with cold milk poured over all. Ingredients:
4 -5 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced |
1/2-3/4 cup sugar (depending on sweetness of peaches) |
1 tablespoon flour |
1/2 cup water |
1/2-1 teaspoon vanilla (or almond ) |
2 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon sugar |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
2/3 cup buttermilk |
1/3 cup oil |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Filling: Put peaches and water in 2-qt saucepan. Mix sugar and flour together. Pour over top. Stir together and bring just to a boil over medium heat. When mixture boils, add vanilla and remove from heat. Pour into glass baking dish (8X8 or round equivalent).
3. Biscuits: Sift dry ingredients. Make a well in the center and pour wet ingredients in all at once. Stir with a fork till just moistened and pulling away from sides of bowl. Pour out on floured surface and knead 10-15 times. Drop by hand on fruit filling surface.
4. Sprinkle 3/4 tsp cinnamon over all and dot with 2 or 3 Tbsp butter.
5. Bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy!
