Did you smell the peaches at the supermarket??

Peach Cobbler (fresh)

  • 3 cup sliced fresh peaches
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¼ teaspoons almond extract
  • 1 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon juice
  • 1½ cup sifted flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup shortening
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

Oven 400°. Arrange peaches in greased 8x8x2 inch pan. Sprinkle peaches with 1 cup sugar, almond extract, lemon juice, and lemon peel. Heat in oven while preparing shortcake. Sift flour, baking powder, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt. Cut in shortening and mix until coarse crumbs. Add milk and egg at once. Stir until flour is just moist. Spread dough over peaches. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Cook in oven 35 to 40 minutes.

It's not tricky if you check your ingredients! A word to the wise: Pancake batter cannot be substituted for flour in recipes that require rising...you'll end up with something closer to whale blubber.
