As you may know from my previous blog post, I lost my father on March 21 of this year, so my inspiration has not been present very much as my family and I try to heal from this major loss. I decided to invite my mother over for Easter, which happened to be the Sunday after the funeral as well as April Fool's day. April Fool's Day is o high significance for me because of the practical joke war that my dad and I had going for years, at least until I surpassed everything he ever taught me and made him proud. I spent the day trying to go at a relaxed pace. I chose to have a later dinner than we would normally do for a holiday (my family usually eats celebration suppers either at noon if we are at his step parents' house, or 3 pm if at my mother's house), but damned if things didn't go the way of a certain fellow's law that shall not be named; but we all know and loathe him. I melted down over missing croutons. Yeah. That was me. Even with all of the chaos going on in my head that day, as well as things throughout my house, I was able to pull dinner off and even got dessert going with time to spare. Despite the melt down, I was okay by dinner time and happy to have my mom at my table. My mom does gluten free, so I had to figure out what to do for dessert, Lucky for me, she had her baking mix already handy and handed it over to me the day prior when my hubby and I spent time over at my sister's house. Since I already had frozen peaches, I used those and what mom handed me, and I threw together the cobbler. The cobbler is super easy, really! Gluten Free Peach Cobbler
The Method Preheat Oven to 350 Sift baking Mix into a bowl, add melted butter and mix with fork until pea sized clumps form. Add your milk, vanilla, and your sugar and cut into the mixture until you form a loose dough or paste. Grease your cast iron skillet with butter for best result, oil or spray will do as well. Toss the peaches with both wet and dry ingredients and spread over biscuit dough Bake for 45 to 60 minutes until peaches caramelize, top of biscuit will be pale but the bottom will be brown Serve and enjoy! Mom was happy to eat it right after it came out of the oven and had a chance to cool only slightly. She loved it. Unfortunately, I fell asleep before I could eat some, but it was fantastic when it was cold as well.
If you want to do this with regular ingredients, just add the three TBSP of sugar and the vanilla to this recipe when you add the milk to this recipe! I hope you have enjoyed this post and I hope you give it a try! It was delicious, I am telling you. Onward! |
