So today on this very beautiful overcast day I decided to head to the DeKalb Farmers Market. The best place ever for grocery shopping in my book! I love its wide variety of produce, dairy items, meats and other specialties. I headed there to pick up some local peaches for my next menu item; Peach Cobbler! After the success of the cinnamon rolls I decided to stick with the recipe that has been tested and proven to be a favorite. I couldnt just stop at peaches, so I picked up some lovely plums as well. I was mildly tempted to get some apricots as well to make some apricot preserves, glaze, and eventually some dehydrated fruit, but I opted that for another time project. Since I needed to find a piece to my dehydrator.
So in the next couple of days I'll be churning out what will be a juicy and gooey peach cobbler. Im not one for store bought products fore they always seem to have that chemical taste to me. Plus Im a big stickler on baked items. I like for my peach cobbler or any pie for that matter to have a thick glaze like juices thats not runny, but not too thick either. I plan to make the crust from scratch as well. Generally that would be the only thing I would use store bought, but Im feeling very adventurous and confident that I can whip out a flaky crust for the cobbler. After viewing recipes on how to make a cobbler most suggest using a biscuit type of dough dumped on top, but Im a little opposed to that method for I love crust through out my cobbler. Both on top and on bottom. So Im going to do it in that exact manner.
So now that Ive filled you in on whats to come I must get up and finish cleaning to only mess up the kitchen again with more delectable's created with love!
From the Homemakers Handbook in my apron! Happy baking!
