Raspberry Peach Cobbler

Don't you just love cobbler! I had fresh peaches and raspberries so I decided to throw them together into one yummy cobbler. It was such a tantalizing aroma as it was cooking and I didn't even wait for it to cool down before I was snarfing it down.

Don't these peaches look good! Loved 'em!


I cut those beauties up (plus a couple of their peach buddies) and mixed them with the raspberries. Even smelling them cooking on the stove top was heavenly!


The poor beautiful raspberries got turned into mush though the more I stirred. That's alright though because they infused their deliciousness into the peaches!



I never make pretty little balls on top for the dough. I'm always in too much of a hurry to get it into the oven!



Ummmmmmm, yummy! Enjoy the recipe below.
I adapted it from one of good ol' Betty Crocker's classics.



Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 T cornstarch
3 cups peaches (5-6 medium blanched peaches)
1 cup raspberries (6 oz. tub)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
3 T shortening
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 T sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Peel and cut up blanched peaches. Set aside. Mix 1/2 cup sugar and the cornstarch in 2-quart saucepan. Stir in peaches, raspberries and lemon juice. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Pour into ungreased 1-quart casserole; keep peach mixture hot in oven.

Cut shortening into flour, 1 T sugar, the baking powder and salt until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in milk. Drop dough by 6 spoonfuls onto hot peach mixture.

Bake until topping is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm and, if desired, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Makes 6 servings.

Best Peach Cobbler Ever

I found this recipe perusing allrecipes.com. It turned out pretty yummy although the spices collected in the middle while it was cooking. If anyone knows how to avoid this let me know!

Prep Time: 30 MinutesCook Time: 1 Hour
Ready In: 1 Hour 30 MinutesYields: 18 servings

"In the winter make this 9x13-inch cobbler with canned peaches, in the summer use fresh ones. But either way this cobbler is wonderful. The batter goes in the pan before the spiced peaches, and it 's all topped off with cinnamon and nutmeg. Then it 's baked for an hour."

INGREDIENTS:
1 (29 ounce) can sliced peaches
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water

1 cup milk
1 cup white sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
DIRECTIONS:
1.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.) In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches with juice, 2 tablespoons melted butter, a pinch of cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. Dissolve cornstarch in water, then stir into peach mixture; set aside.
2.
In another bowl, combine milk, sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Beat until smooth - mixture will be thin.
3.
Melt 1/2 cup butter in a 9x13 inch pan. Pour batter over melted butter. Spoon peaches over batter. Sprinkle top with additional cinnamon and nutmeg.
4.
Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, or until knife inserted comes out clean.
