Just something I cobbled together

Last summer, when Dad and The Lady came to visit, they brought with them a delicious bounty: a shoebox full of peaches.  We ate them every morning for breakfast, but we weren't sure we'd finish them before they got too mushy.  Something had to be done!

Cobbler had to be done.

Fresh Peach Cobbler
1/2 C sugar
1 T cornstarch
1/4 t cinnamon
4 C peeled, sliced peaches
1 t lemon juice
1 C all-purpose flour
1 T sugar
1 1/2 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
1 t firm butter
1/2 C milk
2 T sugar

1. Heat oven to 400F
2. Mix 1/2 C sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon in 2 qt saucepan.  Stir in peaches and lemon juice.cook over medium-high heat 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until it's thick and boils.  Boil and stir 1 minute.  Pour into ungreased 2 qt casserole.  Keep it hot in the oven.
3. Combine flour, 1 T sugar, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl.  Cut in butter with a pastry blender until it looks like fine crumbs.  Stir in milk.  Drop by spoonfuls over hot peaches.  (I worked with the peaches and dough simultaneously, so the peaches didn't rest in the oven.  Still worked.)  Sprinkle 2 T sugar over dough.
4. bake 25-30 minutes or until topping is golden brown.  Serve with whipped cream, or iced cream, or brandy, or something.
