how to make Easy Peach Cobbler
Ingredients:
- 2 cups sliced peaches (1 – 16 ounce can or a quart of home canned peaches)
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch (optional)
- 1 stick butter (1/4 pound)
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
- In a bowl, mix the peaches with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cornstarch (if using). Drain the peaches and toss them with the sugar mixture.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C). Place the stick of butter at the bottom of an 8×8 inch glass baking dish or a 2-quart casserole dish. Put the dish in the oven to melt the butter. Remove it once the butter is melted.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and vanilla to create a batter.
- Pour the batter over the melted butter. Do not stir it. Gently place the peaches on top of the batter, along with the sugary juice.
- Bake the peach cobbler for one hour, or until the crust is golden brown. The batter will rise during baking. If you use a metal pan, the cobbler may be ready in 30-40 minutes, so watch for browning and bubbling.
