Golden Crust:
- 1 cup flour

Directions
-
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). -
Prepare the Fruity Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, flour, salt, vanilla essence, lemon juice, and optional cinnamon. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly. -
Assemble the Filling:
Transfer the peach mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly. -
Prepare the Golden Crust:
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the hot water until the dough is evenly moistened. -
Spread the Crust:
Spoon or spread the crust mixture over the peach filling, ensuring it covers most of the surface. -
Add the Radiant Finish:
In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the crust. -
Bake:
Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling. -
Serve:
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
Tips:
- If fresh peaches aren’t available, you can substitute them with frozen or canned peaches. Just be sure to drain them well.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg to the filling for extra warmth and flavor.
Enjoy this classic dessert that will bring back cherished memories of family gatherings!
