Texas Peach Cobbler image

I love this cookbook - Smoke & Spice. Many of the intros and some of the comments are so funny. Anyway........ Texans usually like their peach cobblers with an abundance of juicy fruit and a biscuit-like batter topping that's crunchy on the surface and doughy inside.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

FILLING:
3 1/2 lb ripe medium peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
1/4 c sugar
1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp ground ginger
3/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
BATTER:
1/4 c unsalted butter
1 1/4 c all purpose flour
3/4 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 c milk
TO SERVE:
peach melba ice cream, optional
whipped cream, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • 2. In a bowl, mix together all the fruit filling ingredients.
  • 3. Set the fruit aside to draw out the juices while preparing the batter. Cobbler filling should be a bit juicier than most pies.
  • 4. Melt the butter in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish, either in the oven or on the stove.
  • 5. In another bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, and baking powder and add the milk.
  • 6. Mix until lightly blended.
  • 7. Spoon the mixture evenly over the melted butter.
  • 8. Don't stir it, which eliminates the development of crunchy edges.
  • 9. Pour the peach filling evenly over the batter.
  • 10. Bake for 45 minutes.
  • 11. As the cobbler cooks, the batter oozes up and around the fruit, crowning the cobbler with a moist golden brown crust.
  • 12. Serve warm.
  • 13. If you're a certified hedonist, top it with ice cream or whipped cream.
  • 14. Variation: Blackberry Cobbler Make a blackberry cobbler by substituting berries for the peaches and eliminating the ginger. For ourselves, we would also add 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.

This cobbler was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a good dessert. The biscuit topping was especially good.

This cobbler was easy to make and turned out great. I used canned peaches and it still tasted amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of fruit cobblers, but this one was really good. The peaches were perfectly ripe and the biscuit topping was flaky and buttery.

This cobbler was a disappointment. The biscuit topping was too dense and the peaches were not very flavorful.

I've tried many peach cobbler recipes, but this one is by far the best. The dough is flaky and buttery, and the peaches are cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this recipe!
