How To Make Peach Cobbler Dessert?
Peach Cobbler Ingredients
Peaches – 4 cups fresh or unsweetened canned peaches peeled and sliced
Raspberries or blueberries – 2 cups
All-purpose flour – 1 cup
Baking powder – ¾ teaspoon
baking soda – ¼ teaspoon
Eggs – 1. If you are using frozen egg product use 1/4 cup, thawed
Butter / margarine – 2 tablespoon
Cornstarch – 4 teaspoon
Yogurt – 1/3 cup of the low-fat variety
Sugar or sugar substitute – 4 tablespoon
lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
Allspice – ½ teaspoon, ground fine.
Salt – 1/8 teaspoon
Water – ¼ cup very cold water
Method
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add ¼ teaspoon ground allspice and 2 tablespoons of sugar. If you are using a sugar substitute use the equivalent amount of 3 spoons of sugar. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and keep the flour mixture aside.
- Add the low-fat yogurt, melted butter or margarine and the refrigerated egg product. IF you are using fresh eggs, make sure that you beat it well separately before adding it to the yogurt-butter mix. Whip the ingredients thoroughly so that the butter, yogurt and egg form a thick paste.
- Add this paste to the flour mixture and mix it until it forms a crumbly sort of dough. Set it aside.
- Add the remaining sugar or sugar substitute to a medium size saucepan and add in the cornstarch, lemon juice, and allspice. Add the peaches and the water to the saucepan and cook it over medium heat. Once the peach mixture has thickened and is bubbling, stir in the berries.
- Stir the mixture gently for a minute or until it starts to steam. Transfer it to a 2-quart square or round baking dish and immediately drop the Biscuit Topping into it in small mounds.
- Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes. The top should be evenly browned. You can stick a toothpick into the biscuit topping and if it comes out clean, your dish is done.
