SYLIVA'S PEACH DELIGHT



Syliva's Peach Delight image

This is a wonderful summer dessert. Everyone at the family reunion has gotten to expect it. It is easy to "lighten up" by using low fat and sugar free ingredients. If you use fresh peaches instead of canned sprinkle some lemon juice over them to prevent browning. I make the 4th layer first because it takes so long for it to cool. Is better if made a day ahead.

CARDAMOM-SCENTED PEACH-APRICOT COBBLERS



Cardamom-Scented Peach-Apricot Cobblers image

These single servings of peach cobbler have some exciting surprises under their drop-biscuit tops: cardamom and allspice. While the spices work to perfume each and every bite, sliced apricots bring a touch of acidity which helps to make every bite more delicious than the last.

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 peaches (2 pounds), halved lengthwise, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges (6 cups)
12 ounces apricots (4 to 5), pitted and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges (2 cups)
2/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/3 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing
Sanding sugar, for sprinkling
Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Filling: Preheat oven to 375°F. Stir together peaches, apricots, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cardamom, allspice, and salt. Divide mixture between six 1 1/2-cup ramekins or gratin dishes (about 1 1/3 cups each).
  • Biscuits: In a bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter to form clumps no larger than small peas. Stir in buttermilk and cream until a soft, sticky dough forms.
  • Spoon about 1/3 cup dough on top of each ramekin (fruit mixture should not be completely covered). Brush tops with cream; sprinkle with sanding sugar. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and bubbling, 55 to 70 minutes. Let cool 30 minutes; serve with ice cream.
