Mom's Magic Peach Cobbler

Mom's Magic Peach Cobbler

My Mom’s MAGIC peach cobbler is the most perfect dessert! It’s warm and sweet, crunchy and juicy! This was THE dessert I asked her to make for my birthday every year! It's cake with fruit and you can even put ice cream on top (although I prefer whipped cream)!

    4 cups sliced peaches

  • Microwave 1/4 cup water for 1 minute so it's boiling

  • Pour boiling water over ALL of sugar - this is where the MAGIC happens!Be sure to drizzle the water over all of the sugar so every grain is covered with water!
  • Bake at 375 for 45 minutes (or until the cobbler topping is done – test like you do cake – toothpick in the center – if it comes out clean – it’s done – should be golden)
