Best Crispy Crust Peach Cobbler With Vanilla Ice Cream Recipes

PATTI LABELLE'S PEACH COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan with 1/2 stick (4 tbs) of the butter. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crusts until they are large enough to cover the baking pan surface.
• In a large skillet, melt the remaining 1/2 stick (4 tbs) butter over medium heat. Mix in agave syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and peaches. Add in 2 pinches of salt and mix well. Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for 10 minutes. Remove mixture from heat and set aside to cool.
• Pour half of the peach mixture into the prepared baking pan in an even layer. Grate half of the orange zest on top of the peaches. Place the first sheet of pie crust on top. Bake for 15 minutes or until light brown.
• Take the cobbler out of the oven. Pour the remaining half of the peach mixture on top and grate the remaining orange zest on top of the peaches. Place the second pie crust on top, brush with a thin layer of egg wash and sprinkle cinnamon.
• With a fork, poke holes on the top layer. This will help it cook evenly and allow steam to escape. Bake for 40 minutes or until the peach juices start to bubble and the top crust is golden brown.
• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

OLD-FASHIONED PEACH COBBLER WITH SUGARED CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced peaches (4 cups) with the brown sugar (1/2 cup) and a small pinch of salt and and cook on medium for just a few minutes, until the sugar is dissolved and the peaches are very juicy.
• Add the melted butter (8 tablespoons) to the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. (Tip: You can melt it separately and pour it in, or just stick the whole pan in the microwave or in the oven to melt the butter directly in it.)
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour (1 cup), the baking powder (1 teaspoon), and the sugar (3/4 cup). Stir in the milk (3/4 cup) until just combined. Pour on top of the melted butter in the baking dish, and smooth it out as best you can with a wooden spoon or spatula (it's OK if it's not perfect!).
• Pour the peach mixture evenly on top of the flour mixture.
• Sprinkle evenly with the ground cinnamon (1 teaspoon) and the turbinado sugar (1/4 cup).
• Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until browned on top. If you like, you can broil it for the last 2-3 minutes to form an extra-crispy and browned caramelized sugared layer on top. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
