Blueberry Peach Cobbler

I love fruit deserts!  Cobblers are one of my favorites because they are so easy.  Just a few steps and you are rewarded with something warm and bubbly that reminds you of home.  That's how I feel about them, anyway.

Here's a recipe for a Blueberry Peach Cobbler that is out of this world!  Make it on a Sunday morning so your kitchen will smell like blueberry pie all day.  Fact. It's a win-win situation!

(recipe adapted from cooks.com)

You will need:

3 c. sliced peaches (5 or 6 med.)
2 c. blueberries
2 tbsp. lemon juice
2/3 c. sugar
3 tbsp. all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 tbsp. butter
1 c. all purpose flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 c. shortening
3 tbsp. milk
1 egg

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange the peaches and blueberries in ungreased 8x8 inch baking dish.

Sprinkle with lemon juice. Mix 2/3 cup sugar, 3 tbsp. flour and cinnamon; sprinkle over fruit.

Dot with butter.

Mix 1 cup flour, 2 tbsp. sugar, the baking powder and salt, cut in shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbs.

 

 

 

Blend together milk and egg, and then add it to the flour mixture until a dough forms.

Drop dough by 9 spoonfuls onto fruit mixture.

Bake uncovered until topping is golden brown 25 to 30 minutes.

Serve warm with whip cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Left overs are delicious cold, right from the fridge.  Two spoons, one bowl - Go for it! : )

Happy 1st day of Summer!!!  Celebrate and make a cobbler.  It's so worth it!
