Update: I corrected LOTS of broken links for peach recipes in Great Threads. Enjoy

oh Deb...there was a DivaEntertains post about blueberry/peach pie that I couldn't find. So I put both the My Oh My Blueberry Pie and the My Oh My Peach Pie recipes there.

Do you have the proportions you used?
 
I just tried this recipe a couple weeks ago, and it was very good! Pictures are at "www.onceuponachef.com"

Peach Cobbler​

METRIC CUP MEASURES
By Jennifer Segal, inspired by Slate magazine
This rustic peach cobbler is made from sweet peaches, warm spices, and a homemade buttermilk biscuit topping.
Servings: 9
Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 40 Minutes
Total Time: 1 Hour 10 Minutes

INGREDIENTS​

FOR THE PEACH FILLING​


  • 3 pounds yellow peaches (7 medium peaches), peeled, pitted and cut into ¼-inch slices
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice, from 1 lemon
  • ⅔ cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg

FOR THE BISCUIT TOPPING​

  • 1 cup all purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off with a knife
  • 7 tablespoons sugar, divided
  • 1¼ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small chunks, plus more for greasing the pan
  • ⅔ cup buttermilk (see note)
  • ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract

FOR SERVING​

  • Vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream

INSTRUCTIONS​

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly butter a 9-inch square or 2.5-quart baking dish.
  2. Make the peach filling: In a large bowl, combine the peaches, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined and the peaches are evenly coated. Set aside.

  4. Make the biscuit topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 6 tablespoons of the sugar, the baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the butter and rub in with your fingers, or blend with a pastry cutter, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a liquid measuring cup, combine the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Add the buttermilk-vanilla mixture to the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until evenly moistened. Do not overmix; the batter will look lumpy.
  5. Assemble and bake the cobbler: Transfer the peach filling to the prepared baking dish and flatten into an even layer. Drop the batter in 6 large, evenly spaced dollops on top of the peaches. Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the batter. Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the top is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool for about 1 hour, then serve with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.
  6. Cover any leftover cobbler loosely with a kitchen towel. (Do not cover with plastic wrap or the biscuit topping will get soggy.) Reheat in a 325°F oven for about 15 minutes.
  7. Note: If you’d like to make your own buttermilk, check out the easy method here.

  9. Make-Ahead Instructions: The cobbler can be made one day ahead and kept, covered with foil, at room temperature. Reheat, covered with foil, in 300°F oven for 25 minutes, then remove the foil and continue reheating for 15 to 20 minutes more, or until warmed through.

Thank you! Now are there any decent peaches? With all the news on decimated orchards, I haven’t even looked this year. Anyone get good ones?
 
Yep. I do live in the land of peaches. Just bought 3 x 3 L. boxes for $3.57 each. I don't know what a litre is either, but there are 10 peaches per box. I am stunned that the trees managed to fruit. It is SO dry here. We have had one tiny drizzle in 2.5 months. Never seen them so cheap.

And these will probably be smoked peaches.

The fires burning up the world are just taking over. There is one large town in BC, at the border with Washington. A Washington fire moved in on it from the south and BC fire from the north.

And the temp is just shy of 100 here today. That won't help at all.

Thank you for all the recipes. My favourite fruit. My favourite season.
 
The southern peach crop is non-existent. Georgia lost almost ALL of theirs and SC (which is the true peach growing state) couldn't keep up.
