Serve this delicious dessert warm with ice cream or a drizzle of heavy cream.
Ingredients
- For Filling:
- 1 large can (29 ounces) peaches in syrup
- 1/2 cup sugar (granulated)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- For Biscuit Crust:
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon shortening
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons ​cinnamon sugar
Steps to Make It
-
Heat the oven to 425 F.
-
Drain the peaches, reserving the liquid.
-
Combine the sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Stir in the reserved peach liquid and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Boil the syrup for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice and add the peaches. Set it aside to cool while you prepare the biscuit dough.
-
Mix the flour, salt and baking powder in a bowl; cut in the shortening with a pastry blender or two knives. Add milk gradually to make a soft dough. Turn it out onto a floured surface and roll the dough to fit the baking dish.
-
Spoon the peach mixture into a buttered pie or baking dish, dotting the top with the pieces of butter. Sprinkle it with the cinnamon sugar.
-
Arrange the dough on top of the peach filling and crimp the edges.
-
Bake the cobbler for 16 to 20 minutes, or until the top turns golden. Cool for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
