PEACH COBBLER - SOUTH CAROLINA STYLE
Steps:
- 1. Make peach mixture first. Slice fresh peaches into wedges, or thaw frozen peaches.
- 2. In a large bowl gently toss peaches with 1 cup sugar, almond extract and 3 TBS. flour. I also add a dash of salt here.
- 3. Note: If peaches are really juicy add up to 1 TBS. instant tapioca granules so peaches won't be floating in their own juice! Set Aside.
- 4. Preheat oven to 350*. Spray 2 quart baking dish with PAM.
- 5. Melt butter and add to baking dish.
- 6. In another bowl mix together 3/4 cup flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 c. sugar. Add milk. (I sometimes mix our 1% milk with half and half to make it a little richer.)
- 7. Pour batter over melted butter in baking dish. Try to get it evenly distributed. DO NOT STIR into the butter!
- 8. Spoon peach mixture over batter, evenly. DO NOT STIR!
- 9. Bake @ 350* for 50-55 minutes, until top is golden brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle top with raw sugar while still hot.
- 10. Serve with ice cream or cream. Heavenly!

Adapted from Taste of Home. This recipe was submitted to Taste of Home by a South Carolina reader. I added some cinnamon - and it is a good cobbler recipe, but I'm sure it was the fresh GEORGIA peaches that make it so good! :)

Tips:
- Choose the right fruit: Fresh, ripe fruit is essential for a great cobbler. If you're using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cobbler tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a large baking dish: A large baking dish will allow the cobbler to cook evenly.
- Bake the cobbler until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling: This usually takes about 30-40 minutes.
- Serve the cobbler warm with ice cream or whipped cream: This is the best way to enjoy a delicious cobbler!
