Peach Cobbler

4 C. sliced fresh peaches
2 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp butter
3/4 C. sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Cinnamon

Place peaches in 9x13 pan. Sprinkle with sugar, flour & cinnamon mixture. Pour lemon juice over and dot with butter. Drop mounds of shortcake batter evenly over peaches. Bake at 425 degrees for 30 minutes.

Shortcake batter

2 C. flour
4 tsp baking powder
1/3 C. shortening or margarine
3/4 C. milk
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp sugar
1 egg, well beaten


Sift dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture becomes coarse crumbs. Combine egg and milk and stir into dry ingredients until just moistened.
I usually double the peach recipe to the shortcake recipe. Serve with ice cream or whatever you like!
