Newcomb Southern Peach Cobbler

Anita Newcomb also shared with me the following fool-proof cobbler recipe. In her own words, "we're deep rooted Southerners and what better dessert than peach cobbler. This recipe is too simple to believe once you’ve tasted it. We always laugh about this in our family because it is a "go to" dessert that people think we labored over. So, here’s our secret peach cobbler recipe:

Southern Peach Cobbler:

  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1 cup of self rising flour
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 large can of peaches (with out juice / syrup) or 2 cups of fresh ripe peaches sliced

Melt butter. Mix flour sugar and milk. Pour over melted butter—DO NOT STIR. Sprinkle peaches on top—DO NOT STIR. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes – 1hour.

AB Note: All recipes in my book can benefit from freshly whipped cream, and this one is no exception. Offer with sweetened whipped cream (adding a dash of Acacia honey to the cream will round off its taste beautifully).
