Another Peachy Recipe



Last week was real peachy (no pun intended). I felt so successful and proud of the Upside Down Cake that I decided to make another peach recipe (and I had a lot of leftover, bruised peaches). So I asked my new friend, AllRecipes.com, for a peach recipe. There were a lot of tasty-looking recipes, but I chose the “Southern Peach Cobbler”. As I read through the reviews, most of them five stars, I noticed that many reviewers also left corrections they felt would make the recipe better. I decided to stick to the original recipe. 

I peeled the skin off the badly bruised, but really juicy peaches, and cut them up to put into a bowl. I followed the recipes exactly (Except I put an extra dash of nutmeg in. I like my nutmeg). I was disappointed with how liquidy it was, but that didn’t seem to affect the taste too much. My family all had a piece, with a little vanilla ice cream on top, of course. They all liked it. Even Kevin, my little 11 year old brother who doesn’t hand out the compliments too often, said it was good!
One thing I did notice is that the leftovers became quite soggy. It didn’t set up very well because I used bruised, kind of mushy peaches. So my advice when making this Southern Peach Cobbler, is buy fresh, firm peaches.
