Peach Crisp or Cobbler

1. Prepare the Peaches

Begin by peeling the peaches. Dip each peach into a pot of boiling water for 10 to 15 seconds to blanch, then slip off the skins. Halve, pit, and slice into ⅓-inch thick pieces to yield about 7 cups of sliced peaches.

2. Mix the Peaches

In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with flour and sugar (if desired). Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of the peaches. The flour will help thicken the fruit juices during baking.

3. Assemble the Dessert

Transfer the peach mixture into a 2-quart baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle with Crisp Topping or arrange Cream Biscuits on top, depending on preference.

4. Bake to Perfection

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the assembled dish for 40 to 55 minutes, rotating once or twice until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juices are bubbling.

5. Serve and Enjoy

Allow the Peach Crisp or Cobbler to cool slightly before serving. It pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or ice cream.
