This is a delicious dessert! If you like cobblers and cornbread then you will love this hybrid. Pretty simple and not a whole lot of measuring needed. The textures and flavors are so good, and it's yummy served warm! Reheats great also.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
cooking spray
1 (16 ounce) package cornbread mix (such as Marie Callender's®)
1 ½ cups water
4 medium (blank)s peaches, or more to taste
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Beat cream, sugar, and almond extract in a glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Continue to beat until peaks form. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray the bottom and sides of a 2-quart glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine cornbread mix and water in a mixing bowl; mix until lumps disappear. Set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut an "X" in the bottom of each peach and place in the boiling water. Leave in the boiling water for 30 seconds, then remove with a slotted spoon.
  • Allow peaches to cool slightly, then cut in half. Peel skin off and remove pit. Cut peaches into 1/2-inch slices and place in a colander in the sink to drain excess juice.
  • Combine brown sugar, butter, and salt in a large pan over medium heat until brown sugar has dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in peaches. Cook until mixture thickens and peaches become tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Sprinkle sliced almonds evenly on the bottom of the dish. Pour peach mixture gently over the almonds, and pour cornbread mixture gently over the peaches. Smooth batter evenly with a spatula to cover all peaches.
  • Bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before cutting into squares. Lift squares with a spatula and flip onto a serving dish so peaches are on top. Serve with chilled whipped cream.
