This has to be the best desert I have made to date. Peach cobbler is something you grow up knowing about in the south and eating on a regular basis but as I got older and moved to the west coast it honestly just slipped out of my mind just how delicious it really is.
I had been seeing these different recipes on Pinterest about cobblers and asked Eric one night how he felt about it and his response was “I’ve never had it” immediately I was like “WHAT?!?! You are kidding” he was dead serious. Now I couldn’t let him go the rest of his life never having cobbler so the next day after I found the recipe I’m going to share and I got the ingredients and put it together. After anxiously waiting for it to cool down I put some in a bowl with a scoop of french vanilla ice cream and he went to town.
Now if you know Eric you know he has a poker face and would never dare give away whether or not he actually likes something so I poked and prodded and finally came to the conclusion he really liked it. The 2nd time I made it for him it was even more evident he liked it and now it’s my “go to” dessert when fresh peaches are around at the store. I also made this recipe recently for his sister and brother-in-law and while his sister didn’t care for the texture she said the flavor was good and well Matt loved it as I figured he would since he likes food in general 😛
PLEASE make sure you use fresh peaches I couldn’t imagine canned or frozen peaches would be near as good as the fresh ones. As with any baking it’s best to not substitute or change the ingredients so stick with the recipe to get the results. Enjoy!
