Even though it has been feeling like autumn recently, the fall season does not officially begin until September 22. The “fruits of summer” are, nevertheless, still accessible and ready for baking and eating. I’ve been working with peaches a lot lately, and I came across this new twist on an old favorite.
If peaches aren’t ripe enough to eat right away, put them in a paper bag for a couple of days and inspect them for maturity.
Peach Cobbler in the Summer
Ingredients:
Filling
8 big pitted peaches, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices (about 8 to 10 cups of fruit)
one lemon’s zest
1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
12 teaspoon nutmeg powder
sugar (34 cup)
a quarter cup of brown sugar
cornstarch, 1 tablespoon
1 tsp. salt (kosher)
Crust of Cobbler
2 cups flour (all-purpose)
12 cup unsalted cold butter, sliced into eight tiny pieces
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 tsp. salt (kosher)
1 teaspoon powdered baking soda
a cup of half-and-half to a pound of half-and-half
Sanding sugar or turbinado (raw sugar) (decorating sugar)
Directions:
In a mixing basin, combine all filling ingredients, stir well, and spoon into a 913-inch baking pan.
Combine flour and butter in a separate basin. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, crumble the butter until it is the size of tiny peas. To create a soft dough, combine the sugar, salt, baking powder, and enough half-and-half. 9–12 dollops of dough should be placed on top of the fruit. Lightly dust with turbinado sugar. Bake for 45 minutes at 375 degrees until the dough is brown and the filling is bubbling. Serves 9–12 people
Cheers!
