Peach Season Cobbler with
Flax
Start
to finish: 10 minutes to prep, 45 minutes to bake
8
tablespoons (1 stick) butter
1
cup all-purpose flour
1
cup granulated sugar
3
tablespoons flax meal*
4
teaspoons baking powder
1/2
teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
1
cup whole or low fat-milk
6
cups fresh sliced peaches*
Ice
cream, optional for serving
1.
Preheat the oven
to 350 degrees F. Place butter in a 13 x 9 inch baking dish and place in the
preheating oven. When butter has melted, about 3 minutes, carefully remove dish
and set aside. Let oven continue to preheat.
2.
In a
medium-mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, flax, baking powder, salt, vanilla and
milk, whisking well to combine. Pour mixture evenly over butter in baking dish,
but do not stir. Place peaches over the crust mixture but do not stir.
3.
Bake, uncovered,
45 minutes or until crust is light golden brown. Cool 10 minutes and serve warm,
with ice cream if desired.
Serves 12
*Notes:
Look for flax meal (ground flax seed) on the baking aisle or in a health
foods store, such as Whole Foods. You do not have to peel the peaches for this
cobbler if the peaches are late-season with thin skin.
