Peach Cobbler
Serves 4-6
6 large peaches, pitted & sliced thin
1/3 cup sugar
½ tsp. almond extract
Batter:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
½ cup milk
2 Tbsp. butter, softened
Cook sliced peaches with sugar over medium heat in a saucepan until the peaches soften and a
liquid forms, about 10 minutes. Add almond extract.
In a bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk until just combined.
Butter a 9” x 13” pan with softened butter. Add batter, then peaches on top.
Bake 425 degrees F. for 20 minutes. If need be, bake a few more minutes until the crust is golden brown.
