PEACH COBBLER RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease a baking dish with a little butter, then lay the drained peach slices in the base. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp of the sugar and the ground ginger and set aside.
• Tip the flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and a pinch of salt into a food processor. Whizz until combined, then add the cubes of butter, pulse until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, then add the egg and continue to blitz until it comes together to make a thick dough.
• Spoon the dough in dollops on top of the peaches, creating a good covering, but leave some gaps for the dough to spread into. Sprinkle with a little caster sugar then bake for 40 mins, until golden. Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a baking dish.
• For the fruit: In a bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, flour, lemon juice and salt. Stir and set aside.
• For the topping: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir together. Add the butter and shortening, and then cut together with a pastry cutter. Beat the milk and eggs together. Pour into the flour mixture and stir with a fork until just combined. 
• Pour the peaches into the prepared baking dish. Tear off pinches of the dough topping and drop it onto the surface of the fruit, creating a "cobbled" texture. Sprinkle additional sugar over the top.
• Bake until golden brown and bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. If the cobbler is too juicy, use a turkey baster to remove a little of the juice (or spoon the juice over ice cream). Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.
