oaty peach cobbler

The oatmeal in this cobbler turns it into a less traditional version of a classic.  I recommend adding a bit of basil to the peaches to create a different flavor combination.  Yuo can omit, or even try a little rosemary or mint.

Peaches are best in late summer and until end of September.  Don’t be fooled if they are earlier in the market (farmers or otherwise).  You can beat nature, and their natural season is in the later part of warmer months as they ripe beautifully in the sun.

1
Done

Heat oven to 350 F.

Done

Over medium heat in a saucepan, add the sliced peaches, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt; stir to combine.

4

Cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved and the salt helps bring out juices from the peaches, 3 to 4 minutes.

5

Add the cornstarch to the peaches and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute, until the liquid thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from heat and set aside.

6

topping

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, oats, granulated sugar, baking powder, butter and salt.

Pour the peach mixture into the prepared pan.

9
Done

Scoop or drop biscuit mixture on top of the peaches, leaving a little space between scoops.

10
Done

Sprinkle the brown sugar over the biscuit mixture.

11

Bake at 350F until the top is golden brown and the peaches bubble, about 45 to 50 minutes.

12

Let cool slightly for 10 minutes, serve with your choice of creamy side and top with a few fresh basil leaves.
