Fresh Peach Cinnamon Cobbler
Cobbler can be very simple... but this recipe is a little more complicated! It's especially good since it uses fresh peaches.

- Preheat oven to 220 degrees C.
- In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice and cornflour. Toss to coat evenly, and pour into a 2 litre baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.
- Remove peaches from oven, and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Sprinkle entire cobbler with the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake until topping is golden, about 30 minutes.

I agree that it is a delicious and relatively easy recipe to make. However I left it in the oven as long as was advised and it burnt a little bit. So I would reconsider how long you tell people to cook it for. I also agree with the above comment about doubling the batter mixture. I did that and turned mine then into 8 quennelles of about a tablespoonful each, just enough for a serve with the peaches around it. We also put it with Greek yoghurt. Yummy! - 22 Nov 2016
This was a very easy and tasty recipe. I used fresh ripe apricots as at the moment are in season. I used a dish same as shown in the picture/photo and the only thing I would change is perhaps a little liqueur that compliments the fruit used, for juice as it tended to be a bit dry and to double the batter mixture on the top as it tended to be a bit scarce. I happily fed 6 adults. Gr8 - 05 Dec 2013
This is a good peach cobbler - just the right spices and sweetness. You should note however the amount of baking powder - this is a very "cake-like" cobbler. Also, the amount of cinammon-sugar on the top makes it very hard to tell when it is "golden brown". "very thin" slices of peach also lead to a less chunky peachy cobbler than I really like, so you may want to make your slices reasonably substantial if you want good sized chunks of peach. - 29 Jul 2003 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
