Recipe of the Month: Southern Peach Cobbler

      Happy Saturday! I hope y'all had a great week and Fourth of July! Yesterday at work (I'm a camp assistant at my school's summer program) the kids had peaches in their sack lunches, and since there were extra lunches that no one ate and they would have been thrown away, I took all of the peaches home to make some peach cobbler!
      This was the second time that I made this recipe, and it was so delicious I just had to share it with you! It's just on allrecipes.com, but here it is:

Southern Peach Cobbler

8 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted, and sliced into thin wedges

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

1 tsp fresh lemon juice

2 tsp cornstarch

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

6 T unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

1/4 cup boiling water

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mix Together:

3 T white sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Remove peaches from oven, and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Sprinkle entire cobbler with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.

I added some vanilla ice cream, and voila! It was perfect.

Keep it classy,
