Peach Cobbler


It's summer time, and for me that means the best seasonal fruits of the year.  Every year I look forward to peaches coming into season just so I can make this Peach Cobbler recipe I found on www.allrecipes.com, although as usual I made a lot of changes, mainly adding A LOT more peaches to the recipe.  Also, I learned a trick to peeling the peaches, which in previous years took the longest time to do.

I was so happy when I found this recipe because my in previous attempts at Peach Cobbler, something about the crust is always off -- too sweet, too chewy, etc.  This recipe makes the perfect fluffy and sweet crust.  


Ingredients:
6 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1 cup boiling water
3 tbsp. butter

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Grease 9"x13" baking dish (a good trick for this is to use the wrapper of the butter you are using in the recipe).  I used a smaller 8"x11" pan and my cobbler overflowed a little bit, so I will make sure to use a 9"x13" next time.
