Bretty's Peach Cobbler



Sorry about last night. I did manage to have a few bites of this delicious Peach Cobbler with a little ~~~Twist ~~~.



Remember those nasty tough peaches from "Green Acres" Yaaa Lisa had a hand in canning them for sure! I figured a way out of them by making a peach Cobbler where I would dice them up and cook them more making them palatable. I also had some peach preserves that are not to our liking



I dumped the can of peaches into my Danish hand crank blender with several heaping spoons of peach preserves, 2 heaping teaspoons of cornstarch, and a half cup of sugar. I gave the crank a whirl dicing and mixing it all up.



I melted a couple tablespoons of butter in my nukeable baking dish then poured in the peach mix. scrapping out all the peach juice.



For the topping I used about a half cup of buttermilk pancake mix, half a cup of flour, a heaping teaspoon of baking powder, tablespoon of sugar, a teaspoon of vanilla, an egg, along with a splash of milk till I got the consistency I wanted.. (sorry.. the picture did not turn out. ) I placed my baking dish in a 350 oven for 25 minutes. The Bretty Boy Peach Cobbler came out a golden brown with an ultra fluffy crust.



We enjoyed the cobbler straight outta the oven with some melty ice cream to cool down the dessert enough so we could dive right in and eat it.

I need to take a B F Hammer to my Wonky camera... I know I took the pictures but they are not there when I downloaded them. I might be over medicated... but NOT that much. Don't forget Tomorrow is Gavin and Mmmm's birthday from chat... and next weekend is JD's.. Cloudy today and windy with a high of 25 F ~~~ -3 C. I'll try to chat later if the nausea meds work.

That's a great looking peach cobbler, Bretty. You do so well with taking pictures of your recipes. I could never figure out how to do that. I can take pictures with my phone, but can't figure out how to get them out of it and into the computer, and then into a blog site.

I just made a double recipe of banana bread and it is in the oven for another 39 minutes. I got some free over-ripe bananas this afternoon from a neighbor.

It was 39F here today, and is now 27F. Sun and Mon we are supposed to get 2 to 3" of snow and cooler temps. I am not looking forward to shoveling snow after a long stretch without any. The snow will cover up the ice that is everywhere, making it even more deadly to walk on.

Hey Roger I miss my grandma's banana bread. IDK what happened to the pictures in the camera I thought I'd stopped and took them... Over medicated.

Reminds me a little of peach Kuchen. A German recipe I used to make around the holidays. Some liked ice cream over it when it was still warm

This is a classic from my grandma with a little adjustment.
