Peach Raspberry Cobbler

You know when you end up with an ingredient and then have to find recipes that will help you use that ingredient?  Yeah, that’s what we’re looking at here.

See, I’m a “crisp” girl.  Peach crisp, apple crisp, cherry crisp—if it’s got oats and streusel topping, I’m on board.  So, while I like cobblers just fine, I never choose them over crisp.

But as I mentioned a couple weeks ago in this garlic cheddar beer bread, I had a brand-new bag of self-rising flour that I needed to use up before Passover.  And after lots of Googling recipes for self-rising flour, I couldn’t resist this peach raspberry crisp even though there are NO good fresh peaches right now.  So I re-worked it using canned peaches (I know, not ideal) and it turned out great!

My favorite part about this recipe—besides how delicious it was—is how it came together so incredibly fast.  It seriously was crazy easy and simple to pull together, but felt special as well.  And it would be totally awesome with fresh peaches.

Preheat your oven to 400 F.

In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup of sugar, flour, the milk, vanilla, baking powder, and salt.

Pour the melted butter into a 9×13 baking dish and set aside.

Pour the batter over the butter in the baking dish and whisk together gently.

Place the drained peach slices in the batter (evenly spread out).

Sprinkle the raspberries over the top.

Finally, sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar.

Bake for 25 minutes or until the top is golden and the batter is set.

Serve warm if you’re weird, otherwise let cool (and maybe chill) and eat.  Because hot fruit is weird.
