Easy Peach Cobbler Recipe with Fresh Peaches

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 4 cups sliced fresh peaches
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons shortening
• 0.5 cup milk

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for baking.
2. In a saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup of sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon until well combined. Add the sliced fresh peaches (see tip) and lemon juice, gently tossing to ensure the peaches are evenly coated.
3. Cook the peach filling over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens and begins to boil. Let it boil for 1 minute. Then, pour the mixture into an ungreased 2-quart casserole dish. Keep warm in the oven while preparing the biscuit topping.
4. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well, then cut in the shortening (or butter) until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add the milk and stir until just moistened.
5. Remove the warm peach filling from the oven and drop the biscuit dough onto the peaches in 6 equal-size spoonfuls.
6. Return the peach cobbler to the oven and bake until the topping is beautifully golden brown, approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
