Peach Cobbler from Quilt Country image

Marcia Adams is an exceptional cook and author who hosted the PBS show, "Amish Cooking from Quilt Country". This is a delicious peach cobbler that is unusual in that the dry ingredients and peaches are layered and then boiling water is poured over all before it bakes into a lovely summer dessert. My Dad loves this and my Mom has phoned me many times over the years asking for this recipe when she has misplaced it. Now it's posted for all of us to share.

This is the worst cobbler recipe I've ever tried. It was a waste of time and ingredients.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cobbler didn't turn out well. The crust was too thick and the peaches were undercooked.

This cobbler is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe.

This is the best peach cobbler I've ever had! The crust is so flaky and the peaches are so juicy. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cobbler turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar. It was a bit too sweet for my taste.
