If you are fed up of baking and eating those typical cakes and pastries and want to try a different dessert, try this Peach cobbler recipe. A cobbler is actually a combination of fruit and cake. The fruit is really immersed in syrup and is traditionally covered with a hard topping.
Ingredients
- Sliced peaches in light syrup - 1 large can (29 ounces)
- Brown sugar - ⅓ cup
- Granulated sugar - ¼ cup
- Lemon juice - 1 lemon
- Ground cinnamon - ¼ teaspoon
- Ground nutmeg - ¼ teaspoon
- Salt - 1 pinch
- Butter - 1 tablespoon
- Cornstarch - 2 tablespoons
- Sifted all-purpose flour - 1 cup
- Baking powder - 1 teaspoon
- Salt - ½ teaspoon
- Sugar - 2 teaspoons
- Chilled butter - ¼ cup
- Milk - ⅓ cup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Also prepare one quart baking dish by slightly greasing it with melted butter.
- Open the tin of peaches and drain them, reserving the syrup.
- Arrange the drained peach slices in the prepared baking dish, while measure one cup of the reserved syrup into a small saucepan.
- Add ⅓ cup of brown sugar and ¼ cup of granulated sugar to the saucepan containing the syrup.
- Now add lemon juice and butter to the syrup and mix well.
- Now add all the spices and two tablespoons of corn-starch to the syrup and sugar mixture.
- After stirring well, place the saucepan over the stove and bring this mixture to boil on medium heat.
- Once the concoction starts boiling, reduce the heat and allow it to simmer uncovered for about 4 to 5 minutes or until the sauce is thick and clear.
- Pour the hot sauce over the peaches and place it in the oven.
- Meanwhile, prepare a topping for your peach cobbler.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine one cup of all-purpose flour, one teaspoon of baking powder, half teaspoon of salt and two teaspoons of sugar.
- Add butter to the dry ingredients bit by bit until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Now add ⅓ cup of milk to this mixture and stir well to form stiff dough.
- Remove the peaches from the oven and spoon this dough over the hot peaches so that they are completely covered.
- Return to oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
- Your peach cobbler is ready and you can serve it both hot and cold with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
