1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2-15 oz. cans sliced peaches in light syrup, drained; or peeled and sliced fresh peaches and their juices

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Put the butter in a 9 x 13 baking dish in the preheating oven. In the meantime, in a separate bowl mix together the flour, sugar, salt and cinnamon. Stir in milk and vanilla. Batter will be thin. Remove pan from the oven and pour the batter into the melted butter; do not stir. Lay peaches on top of the batter.

Cover pan with foil and bake for 15 minutes (keeps batter from bubbling over); remove foil and continue baking for an additional 20-30 minutes or until cobbler is a very light, golden color. It will have a pudding-like consistency.

Serves 10-12.

There are different versions, of course, and mine is based on the thin batter variety. My favorite that is similar to this is from a hole in the wall bbq joint in Irving.

If you haven't been already, TexasGirl, there are some yummy peach festivals in the summer. I've been to the one held in Weatherford, west of Fort Worth but Stonewall and Fredericksburg have an excellent one, I'm told. I'm sure bellestar knows of them, too.

Love the recipe, blueskies. I wonder if you've ever made blackberry?

Thanks case! No, I never have, but I do like blackberries. I may try that sometime.

P.S. TexasGirl and case44, I can't go back and edit my recipe now but it should be 1/2 stick butter and 1 can peaches and everything else is the same except bake it in an 8x8 pan.

So, so sorry!! I had a regular version and a doubled version and somehow when I typed it I got it mixed up, probably cuz I was in a hurry.
