Black Folks Southern Peach Cobbler Recipe

• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 1 hour

Ingredients

4 cups peaches (ripe and fresh, peeled and sliced (or two 28 oz. canned peaches, drained)

1 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

½ teaspoon ginger (minced)

¼ cup water (cold)

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2 cups Bisquick (*See the notes below for how to make homemade Bisquick from scratch)

1 cup milk

¾ cup sugar (granulated)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup butter (melted)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the butter in the baking dish and then place the dish in the oven to melt the butter while the oven is preheating.

Remove the melted butter from the oven after a few minutes and set it aside.

Peel and slice the peaches into quarters, and then halve the quartered peach slices. (If using canned peaches, use a colander to drain the peach juice before slicing them).

In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ingredients for the peach filling: peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

Add the cornstarch to the cold water and stir until smooth.

Pour the cornstarch mixture into the peach mixture.

Stir the peach mixture to combine the ingredients and then set aside.

In a second medium-sized bowl, whisk the ingredients for the cobbler batter: Bisquick, milk, sugar, and vanilla.

Pour the Bisquick mixture over the melted butter in the baking pan.

Then, pour the peaches into the Bisquick mixture (the dough will rise around the peaches as it bakes).

Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes. Watch the cobbler while baking, and bake until the cobbler dough is golden brown.

To test whether the cobbler is done, insert a toothpick into the center of the dough. If it comes out clean, it is done. This is important because you don't want the dough under the top crust to still be raw.

Serve Southern peach cobbler warm, and enjoy!
