texas peach cobbler
(2 ratings)
I love this cookbook - Smoke & Spice. Many of the intros and some of the comments are so funny. Anyway........ Texans usually like their peach cobblers with an abundance of juicy fruit and a biscuit-like batter topping that's crunchy on the surface and doughy inside.

How To Make texas peach cobbler
-
1Preheat the oven to 350F.
-
2In a bowl, mix together all the fruit filling ingredients.
-
3Set the fruit aside to draw out the juices while preparing the batter. Cobbler filling should be a bit juicier than most pies.
-
4Melt the butter in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish, either in the oven or on the stove.
-
5In another bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, and baking powder and add the milk.
-
6Mix until lightly blended.
-
7Spoon the mixture evenly over the melted butter.
-
8Don't stir it, which eliminates the development of crunchy edges.
-
9Pour the peach filling evenly over the batter.
-
10Bake for 45 minutes.
-
11As the cobbler cooks, the batter oozes up and around the fruit, crowning the cobbler with a moist golden brown crust.
-
12Serve warm.
-
13If you're a certified hedonist, top it with ice cream or whipped cream.
-
14Variation: Blackberry Cobbler Make a blackberry cobbler by substituting berries for the peaches and eliminating the ginger. For ourselves, we would also add 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
