Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 fresh peaches, peeled, pitted and sliced into thin wedges (I have only used fresh)
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch (I used flour)
1 cup all-purpose flour (I used self-rising and omitted the baking powder)
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
1/4 cup boiling water
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon 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(I cooked filling on top of stove until thickened).
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • Stir in water until just combined.
  • Remove peaches from oven, and drop spoonfuls of topping over them.

  • Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.

CRUNCHY CRUST PEACH COBBLER



Crunchy Crust Peach Cobbler image

I was looking for peach cobbler recipe that was a bit different and found this one at TOH. Dh ended up making this so that speaks to the ease of the recipe. This would be easy to substitute other fruit for peaches and I personally would increase the fruit filling but it was good as written as well. This makes for a nice cobbler with a crunchy crust with a light meringue flavor.

EASY CREEPING CRUST COBBLER



Easy Creeping Crust Cobbler image

This was given to me by my mom - she's made this for years, and it's really easy and really good! The name comes from the fact that the batter starts out underneath the fruit, and "creeps" up to surround the fruit as it's cooking! Great served with ice cream or whipped cream.

MIXED TOMATO COBBLER WITH GRUYERE CRUST



Mixed Tomato Cobbler with Gruyere Crust image

Resist temptation, and allow the cobbler to cool to room temperature before serving so tomato juices have time to collect.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups grated Gruyere cheese
1 cup (2 sticks) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces
1 large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds assorted cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped basil
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, and 1 cup Gruyere cheese. Add 1 cup butter; process until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds.
  • With machine running, pour ice water (about 1/4 cup) little by little through feed tube. Pulse until dough holds together without becoming wet or sticky; be careful not to process more than 30 seconds. To test, squeeze a small amount together: If it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Divide dough into two equal balls. Flatten each into a disk; wrap in plastic. Transfer to refrigerator; chill 1 hour.
  • Melt remaining tablespoon butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool slightly.
  • Place tomatoes in a large bowl. Toss with remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar, and basil and pepper. When onion mixture is cooled, add to tomato mixture, and toss to combine. Transfer mixture to a deep 9 1/2- or 10-inch pie dish. Set aside.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out half the dough into a circle 1 inch larger than pie dish. Remaining dough may be frozen up to 1 month. Transfer rolled dough to top of dish; tuck in edges to seal. Make three to four small slits in crust; form a decorative edge if desired. In small bowl, mix egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush egg glaze over crust; sprinkle crust with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Place pie dish on a baking sheet to catch drips; bake until crust is golden and insides are bubbling, about 50 minutes. Let cobbler cool before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fruit: Fresh, ripe fruit will produce the best cobbler. If using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will create a tough crust. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot oven: Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before baking the cobbler. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Cover the cobbler while baking: This will help to keep the fruit from drying out. Remove the cover for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to allow the crust to brown.
  • Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Cobblers are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of recipes to choose from, there is sure to be a cobbler that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, try making a cobbler. You won't be disappointed!
