Peach Cobbler - Easy Summer Dessert

• Serves: 6 to 8
• Prep Time: 30 minutes
• Total Time: 90 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 quart prepared fruit (about 4 large peaches
• peeled and sliced)
• ¼ c. creamed butter
• ½ c. white sugar (plus ¼ c. extra)
• 1 c. all-purpose flour
• 2 t. baking powder
• ¼ t. salt
• ½ c. milk

Instructions

Using fresh peaches, first prepare the fruit. Peel and slice them, and place in a bowl. Add the 1/4 cup extra sugar, and set aside so that juice can form. If you are using frozen fruit, thaw it ahead of time.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 1 1/2 quart casserole. Set aside.

Cream the butter and sugar in a medium bowl. Separately, mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and salt). Measure out the milk. Alternately add the dry mixture and the milk to the creamed mixture, beating lightly after each addition.

This will make a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the cobbler tough. This mixture is similar to muffin batter.

Spread the batter in the bottom of the baking dish. Pour fruit on top, and dot with butter.

Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour. As it bakes, the batter will rise up through the fruit.
