Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted, and sliced into thin wedges
2 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
¼ cup boiling water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Combine peaches, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a large bowl. Toss to coat evenly, and pour into a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine flour, white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. 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 flour mixture over them.
  • Mix together 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle entire cobbler with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.

I'm not a huge fan of peaches, but I loved this cobbler! The peaches were cooked perfectly and the topping was delicious. I would definitely make this again.

I made this cobbler with frozen peaches and it turned out great! The peaches were still juicy and flavorful, and the cobbler topping was crispy. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

This cobbler was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I would recommend using less sugar in the topping next time.
