Introduction: Howdy y’all! Chef James Miller here, bringing you a dessert straight from the heart of Texas. This peach cobbler is a classic Southern treat, perfect for those warm summer evenings. Made with juicy, ripe peaches and a buttery, golden crust, it’s a simple yet satisfying end to any meal. Let’s get cooking!
Ingredients:
- 4 large peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup sugar, divided
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Instructions:
- Prep the Peaches:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches and 1/2 cup of sugar. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to release their juices. “Nothing beats the sweetness of fresh, ripe peaches in the summertime,” James muses. “It’s like capturing sunshine in a bowl.”
- Prepare the Batter:
- In another bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, self-rising flour, and milk until smooth. “This batter is super simple and comes together in no time,” James notes. “It’s like the magic glue that holds this delicious cobbler together.”
- Assemble the Cobbler:
- Pour the melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish. Pour the batter over the butter but do not stir. Spoon the peaches and their juices evenly over the batter. “Trust me, don’t mix it,” James advises. “The batter will rise up around the peaches and create a beautiful, golden crust.”
- Bake to Perfection:
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. “Your kitchen is going to smell amazing,” James says. “It’s the smell of pure Southern comfort.”
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. It’s perfect on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. “Gather your loved ones and dig in,” James encourages. “This cobbler is all about sharing good times and great food.”
Serving Suggestions:
This peach cobbler is best served warm, straight from the oven. Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Chef’s Note: “This cobbler recipe is a family favorite, passed down through generations. Feel free to experiment with other seasonal fruits like berries or plums. Happy baking, y’all!”
