Summertime Peach Cobbler: Easy Entertaining for Busy Ladies

Summertime Peach Cobbler is one of my favorite desserts! I love the peaches from Chino Farms in Rancho Santa Fe.  They are rumored to even beat out Georgia Peaches for fresh flavor!! Make this super easy and delicious cobbler this summer on a day when it is not too hot to turn the oven on :) I always serve it with homemade vanilla ice cream....but whipped cream will be just fine when you are short on time.

Chino Peaches

Chino Farm: The Vegetable Shop in Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Crust: 
3/4 cup GF Flour Blend
3 tablespoons almond flour
1/2  stick unsalted butter, chilled
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 tablespoon powdered egg whites
2 tablespoons sugar
pinch of salt 
1 tablespoon sugar (for sprinkling on top)

Grease a small earthenware bowl (7-inch diameter).  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Combine the dry ingredients and sugar in the bowl of a food processor.  Add the chilled butter and process until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.  Add egg and combine until just mixed.  Do not over process.  Place the dough on a piece of plastic wrap and form a disk.  Wrap the dough and allow to chill for 30 minutes.

Filling:

6-7 peaches (2 cups fruit)
2 tablespoons sugar 
1 tablespoon heavy cream 
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Peel peaches and cut into slices.  Place fruit in the 7-inch bowl, sprinkle it with sugar, vanilla extract and cream, and dot with butter.  Pat or roll out dough until large enough to cover the top of the bowl.  Press dough around the edges of the bowl to form a seal over the fruit.  Make several slits in the top of the dough to allow the steam to escape.  Sprinkle top of dough with the one tablespoon of sugar.  Bake for 20 minutes and then cover top of cobbler with foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
