This cobbler is wonderful after the chipotle-honey glazed pork (frankly, it's wonderful after anything).

Recipe information

  • Total Time

    45 min

  • Yield

    Serves 4

Ingredients

6 large peaches, cut into thin wedges
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch

For biscuit topping

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup boiling water

Preparation

  1. Cook peaches:

    Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

    Step 2

    Toss peaches with sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a 2-qt. nonreactive baking dish and bake in middle of oven 10 minutes.

  2. Make topping while peaches bake:

    Step 3

    Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.

    Step 4

    Remove peaches from oven and drop spoonfuls of topping over them. Bake in middle of oven until topping is golden, about 25 minutes. (Topping will spread as it bakes.)
