INGREDIENTS
- 2 1/2 pounds ripe, juicy peaches (about 4 cups sliced)
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 4 drops almond extract
- pinch of cinnamon (optional)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- biscuit top (below)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Peel peaches by dipping into boiling water for about a minute then slip off skins. Slice into wedges, discarding pits. Place in a shallow 6 cup baking dish or casserole, sprinkle with sugar and almond extract. Dot with butter and cover with rolled out biscuit dough (see below) for top.
Biscuit Top:
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup butter or shortening
- 1/2 cup milk minus 1 tablespoon
Whisk together flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening using a pastry blender or two knives, or your fingertips. Stir in milk, all at once, stirring with a fork until dough clings together. Pat or roll out dough to 1/4" thickness and place over peaches. Trim edges, crimp or flute to seal. Cut a hole in the top center for steam to vent.
Bake in hot 425° oven for 15 minutes, then reduce to 325°F. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until peaches are cooked and top is golden.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. The peach cobbler recipe is ready to serve...enjoy it !
