Easy Peach Cobbler

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder.

Step 2

Mix in 1 cup sugar.

Step 3

Slowly stir in milk to make a batter.

Step 4

Melt butter in a deep casserole dish (about 3 quarts).

Step 5

Pour batter over melted butter. Do not stir.

Step 6

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully add peaches (I use tongs) and boil for about 1 minute.

Step 7

Remove peaches from the pot and plunge them into a bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Skins can now be easily removed with fingers. Slice peaches into bite-sized pieces.

Step 8

In a clean bowl, Mix the peeled, sliced peaches and 3/4 cup sugar thoroughly and carefully spoon them over the batter.

Step 9

Bake for 1 hour. The batter should be golden brown on top before removing from oven. Top with heavy cream or vanilla ice cream.
