Southern Peach Cobbler

Since we're swimming in peaches, I figured I'd try my hand at a peach cobbler to enjoy with the boys this week. I found this awesome sounding (and highly reviewed) recipe online and surprisingly had all of the ingredients in my kitchen already. The results were FAB, so much so, that Derek said if he had a FaceBook account he would have posted about it. Those are pretty big words around these parts.


Ingredients
- 8 fresh peaches                     - 1/4 c. white sugar
- 1/4 c. white sugar                 - 1/4 c. brown sugar
- 1/4 c. brown sugar                - 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. cinnamon                 - 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. nutmeg                    - 6 T. unsalted butter
- 1 tsp. lemon juice                  - 1/4 c. boiling water
- 2 tsp. cornstarch                  - 3 T. white sugar
- 1 c. all-purpose flour              - 1 tsp. cinnamon

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Peel, pit and slice peaches into thin wedges.
3. In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 c. white sugar, 1/4 c. brown sugar, 1/4 tsp. cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and cornstarch. Toss to coat evenly and pour into a 2 quart baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 c. white sugar, 1/4 c. brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Blend in the butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until it resembles course meal. Stir in the water just until combined.
5. Remove peaches from oven and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Mix together then sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl with a fork, then sprinkle the entire cobbler with the sugar/cinnamon mixture. Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.


ENJOY!
