Ingredients:
8 Fresh Peaches, peeled, pitted and sliced into thin wedges
50g of White Sugar
55g of Brown Sugar
0.6g of Ground Cinnamon
0.4g of Ground Nutmeg
5ml of Fresh Lemon Juice
5g of Cornstarch
125g of All Purpose Flour
50g White Sugar
55g Brown Sugar
3g of Baking Powder
3g of Salt
85g of Unsalted Butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
60ml Boiling Water
Procedure:
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F or 220 degrees C. Mix
together 40g of white sugar and 2g of ground cinnamon. In a large mixing
bowl, put peaches, 25gs of white sugar, 25gs of brown sugar,
cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss all together,
coating evenly. Pour into a 2 liter baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes.
While this mixture is baking, combine 60ml of white sugar, 60ml of
brown sugar, the baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Blend
in the butter with your fingers if you don’t have a pastry blender. Make
sure the mixture looks like coarse meal. Stir in just enough water to
combine it.
Take peaches out of the oven and drop spoonfuls of the topping over
them. Sprinkle the whole cobbler with sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake
an additional 30 minutes or until the topping is a golden brown.
