Thread: Berries, berries, and more berries...

Ed, this is a simple but great recipe. You can make it with just blueberries by adding more blueberries in place of the peaches. Vanilla ice cream on top is hard to beat,


Serves 6 to 8

8 tablespoons butter 1 cup self-rising flour 1 cup granulated sugar 1 pinch salt 1 cup whole milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 medium-sized peaches, chopped into bite-sized pieces (about 2 cups) 1/4 cup blueberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the butter in a 13x9 baking dish and put it in the oven to melt.
Whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together in large bowl. Add the milk and vanilla, and whisk gently until smooth. (A couple of teeny tiny lumps are okay, but you want the batter to be as smooth as possible.)
Once the butter is melted and starting to bubble, remove the baking dish from the oven and rotate the dish to coat the bottom and sides with melted butter.
Pour the batter into the hot baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out along the pan. Butter will slop over the sides of the batter -- this is a good thing. Scatter the peaches and blueberries over the batter.
Bake cobbler until the center is just set and the edges are deep golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Eat hot, warm, room temperature, or cold from the fridge for breakfast the next morning. Vanilla ice cream is a wonderful topping, but not strictly necessary.

I knew when I posted the recipe it did not sound like the one we used. Found this one and it is even simpler.

GRANNY'S "CUPPA" COBBLER
2 cups sliced peaches (or other fruit)
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup butter

The name is clearly derived from the ingredient amounts - most of us gals raised in the south were raised on this stuff as prepared by Granny. We also grew up using blackberries instead, as they grew on vines along her garden.

Melt butter. Add sugar, milk and flour. Mix until ingredients are combined (lumpy is good). Pour mixture into a baking dish and add sliced peaches.

Fight the urge to mix the peaches with the batter - you don't need to mix it!!

Bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes, or until bubbly and brown.

Thanks for all the recipes. Shu PMed me this one. I thought I'd add it here so they are all in one place.

This will work for:blueberries, apples, peaches, hard pears and probably a lot more fruit.

Put 1 stick of butter in a large (9 x 13) pan on low heat until melted(i usually put in oven as it heats to 350 degrees, like the butter to brown slightly gives good flavor to batter)
Have this mixture ready when butter is melted:
1 cup plain flour
1 cup sugar
shake of salt
1 rounded teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup milk(a little more for a soft batter
pour mixture into casserole on top of butter.
If using fresh fruit i cook on stove top with a little water, sugar(don't overcook)and i like some cinnamon and a dash of ground cloves for taste.
spoon the fruit over the batter and sprinkle with a little nutmeg.
Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees and enjoy.--shu

^^^^^^^^This! What Hobo said! Especially the pancakes, pies and cobblers! Be hard to choose between the three. Guess I would have to eat the pancakes for breakfast, pie for lunch and a gigantic bowl of cobbler with ice cream for desert. Or maybe all 3 at each sitting.

It's fruit, right? Good for you.

^^^^ This! What Searay said! Fruit is part of a healthy diet. And so is the milk in ice cream! I would consider myself a health nut that day!

The blueberries and peaches are awesome together. Trust me on that. You know I know what to eat.

Peaches in lady lake next week. We go
