350 degree oven and I use a fairly shallow dish.
2 (generous)cups of peaches or any fruit you like, sprinkle with 3/4 cup sugar (I don't use nearly this much especially for good, ripe local fruit); combine and let stand for 15-20 minutes.
Melt 1 stick of margarine (or a little less) in a 1.5 qt baking dish. (I heat this in the microwave right in the dish I'm going to use.)
Mix (or sift) 1 c. self-rising flour, 1 c. sugar, 1 t baking powder then add 1 c. milk and stir - will be lumpy. I also add a little bit of vanilla [see how easy this is?]
Pour all that into the baking dish with the melted butter, add the fruit and gently swirl/stir.
Bake 45 mins or so. Let it stand.
I usually put this in the oven so that it comes out as we sit down to dinner. By the time we eat, it's still warm but not so hot that it turns the vanilla ice cream to milk.

Let me know how it turns out - I like reviews and suggestions

seriously. buy some more.

and don't have a heart attack. this is the recipe - you aren't required to put that much butter and sugar, or eat blue bell ice cream on top, or even eat cobbler every day.

Who made cobbler today?
I DID!

Used peaches from the roadside stand from Waterproof Louisiana. They didn't look so good but they were very sweet. Only sprinkled about a teaspoon of sugar over 2 cups of cut up peaches.

Cobbler was good. Now go make some!

I haven't used blackberries enough to have a strong opinion. My rule of thumb is to add as little sugar as possible. Taste a berry, and then add sugar to bring the berry (not the cobbler) to the level of sweetness you desire. The sugar also will help the fruit juice up a bit. The pastry part of the cobbler has its own sugar, so sweeten the berries, per se, to taste. Let me know how it turns out.

Like I said, the peaches I used this weekend were sweet enough I literally used about a teaspoon of sugar, where the recipe calls for about half a cup over the fruit.

I made a couple blackberry pies last year. I cosign what panda said about letting the sugar sit on the berries for a little bit beforehand. This makes a huge difference

The real question is:



Did your blackberries have mold on 'em?



Truthfully, I like blueberries best. We go pick our own at some point each summer, and make cobblers til we drop. Last year after Gustav, we made blueberry cobbler on the grill! It was funny looking, but delicious!
