Peach Cobbler

Ingredients

Peaches:

  • 6 large peaches, peeled and cut into thin wedges
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch


Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 6 Tablespoons (3/4 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup boiling water

Directions
  1. Cook peaches: Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Toss peaches with sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a 2 qt. (8x8-inch) nonreactive baking dish and bake in middle of oven for 10 minutes.
  3. Make topping while peaches bake: Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.
  4. Remove peaches from oven and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Bake in middle of oven until topping is golden, about 25 minutes. (Topping will spread as it bakes.)
