Quick Peach Cobbler

by: Sue

Our Aunt Artie made us this cobbler at her home in Lafayette, La, in the 1950′s. It’s a delicious way to have your cobbler without having to roll out the dough. I’ve tried many different versions of this type of cobbler, but I keep returning to this old favorite as the best version I’ve tried. Grue and Blue had this for lunch a lot of days when I had thirty minutes or so to make an entire meal including bread and dessert. A small dish of the cobbler hot out of the oven with ice cream is heavenly. It can also be made with fresh or frozen peaches.

1 cup flour
1 cup sugar for batter
3/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 cans cherries or one #2 1/2 can peaches
Cube of butter (3 Tablespoons)
3/4 cup sugar for fruit
1 Tablespoon cinnamon

Mix first four ingredients into a batter. Melt butter in 9X9 pan. Pour batter over butter, add fruit. Sprinkle 3/4 cup sugar and cinnamon over top of fruit. Bake at 375 until crust rises and browns.

Top with ice cream or whipped cream as preferred.
