Peach Melba Cobblers Recipes

Steps:

• In medium bowl, place flour. Cut in 1/3 cup butter, using pastry blender or fork, until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until flour is moistened. Gather pastry into a ball; flatten into round. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate 1 hour or until dough is firm yet pliable.
• Butter 4 (10-oz) individual baking dishes (ramekins). Place baking dishes on cookie sheet. In 4-quart saucepan, mix peaches, 1 1/3 cups sugar, the cornstarch, cinnamon and vanilla. Heat to boiling over medium heat; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Add 3 tablespoons butter; stir until melted. Stir in raspberries. Spoon into baking dishes. Heat oven to 450°F. On lightly floured surface, roll pastry to 1/8-inch thickness; cut into 10x9-inch square. Cut into 2 (9x5-inch) rectangles; cut each rectangle into 12 (3/4x5-inch) strips. Lay 3 strips over peach mixture in each baking dish; cross with 3 more strips. Brush with egg; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake 20 minutes or until filling is bubbly and tops are golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• For the filling: Put the peaches, sugar, cinnamon, salt and lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the peach juices begin to boil. Lower to a simmer and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• For the batter: Put the butter in a 2-quart baking dish and place it in the oven while it preheats. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Stir the vanilla into the milk in a liquid measuring cup. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while whisking until well combined.
• Remove the baking dish from the oven and pour the batter in an even layer over the melted butter. Spoon the peaches along with their juices evenly over the top of the batter. Bake until the cobbler is golden brown on top and the peach juices are bubbling, 35 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the raspberry sauce: Put 1 cup raspberries and 2 tablespoons sugar in a blender and whiz to liquify. Pour through a fine-meshed strainer and into a medium bowl. Keep cool.

Steps:

• Put the water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla pod into a wide saucepan and heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Bring the pan to the boil and let it bubble away for about 5 minutes, then turn the heat down to a fast simmer.
• Cut the peaches in half, and if the stones come out easily then remove them, if not then you can get them out later. Poach the peach halves in the sugar syrup for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Test the cut side with the sharp point of a knife to see if they are soft, and then remove them to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• When all the peaches are poached, peel off their skins and let them cool (then you can remove any remaining stones). If you are making them a day in advance then let the poaching syrup cool and then pour into a dish with the peaches. Otherwise just bag up the syrup and freeze it for the next time you poach peaches.
