PEACH COBBLER
4 cups peeled, sliced fresh
peaches (about 4 to 5 peaches)
1 ¼ cups sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup milk
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted
butter, melted
1 tablespoon cornstarch
¾ cup boiling water
Preheat oven to 325. Place the peaches in a 9 by 9-inch
baking pan.
In a medium bowl, mix together ¾ cup of the sugar, the flour, baking
powder and a ½ teaspoon salt. Add the milk and melted butter and
mix well. Pour the batter evenly over peaches.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and
½ teaspoon salt. Sprinkle over the batter. Evenly pour the boiling
water all over. Bake for 50 minutes, or until golden brown and
bubbling. Serve in individual dessert dishes. Yield: 4 to 6 servings.
