Peachy Keen.

There is one dessert you just have to make in the summer, especially if you live below the Mason Dixon Line... COBBLER! This versatile dessert is one I've had multiple times every summer ever since I can remember. It never disappoints. My favorite is peach cobbler, with blackberry coming in a close second. My mom and I were experimenting in the kitchen a couple of weeks ago when I was home for a visit. We combined this recipe with parts of this one. The biscuit-like topping was very thick, so if you like a thin chewy top to your cobbler, spread the mixture very thin or replace mixture with ready made pie crust. Either way, the peach mixture was out of this world! Definitely making another cobbler before Labor Day!

Melting the butter before cooking the peach mixture.


Simmering the peaches so the mixture thickens.


Drop biscuit dough on top to make crust.


Finished product.


Heaven in a bowl!

  14. i could eat fruit cobbler every day for breakfast! i posted awhile ago on my super easy 2 ingredient cobbler when you want to make it fast but good...dump one can of pie filling and top with spoonfuls of prepared sugar cookie dough...bake it up and you'd think it took hours to make!

  15. You read my mind. I was home this weekend and had the best tasting peaches EVER! Straight off the tree. I was telling my aunt, who is the baker in the family, to make cobbler. She is getting one ready for me this week!
