Peach Cobbler

 Ingredients:

5 peaches, peeled, cored and sliced (about 4 cups)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
(or 1 quart jar canned peaches)

For batter:
6 Tbs butter
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup milk
ground cinnamon

Directions:

1. Add sliced peaches, sugar and salt to saucepan and stir to combine. (If using canned peaches, skip steps 1 &2 and follow the direction starting at step 3)
2. Cook on medium heat for just a few minutes, until the sugar is dissolved and helps to bring out juices from the peaches. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Slice butter into pieces and add to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place the pan in the oven while it preheats, to allow the butter to melt. Once melted, remove the pan from the oven.
4. In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in the milk, just until combined. Pour the mixture into the pan, over the melted butter, and smooth it into an even layer.
5. Spoon the peaches and juice (or canned peaches, if using) over the batter. Sprinkle cinnamon generously over the top.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for about 38-40 minutes. Serve warm, with a scoop of ice cream, if desired.

1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Tbs butter

Add Jello to mixture and continue cooking for one more minute.

Remove from heat and mix in lemon juice and butter. Chill thoroughly.

Slice about 4 cups or more of fresh peaches for one pie. Carefully (so peaches are not mashed) stir in 1/3 of glaze mixture into the peaches for one pie until peaches are thoroughly coated.
Spoon into 9-inch baked and cooled pie shell and cover with sweetened whipped cream.

Chill.

-Glaze may be stored for several days. It may also be used instead of sugar to sweeten a bowl of peaches.
