Ingredients

peaches 6 ripe, each cut into 8 pieces
vanilla extract 1 tsp
ground cinnamon ½ tsp
soft light brown sugar 2 tbsp
vanilla ice cream to serve

COBBLER

butter 80g, chilled and cubed
self-raising flour 200g
golden caster sugar 100g
whole milk 150ml
demerera sugar 1 tbsp

Method

Step 1

Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Put the peaches in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle over the vanilla, cinnamon, sugar and 2 tbsp of water. Toss then put in the oven while you make the cobbler.
Step 2

Whizz the butter, flour, caster sugar and a pinch of salt in a food processor until resembling fine breadcrumbs. Mix in the milk to make very soft, spoonable dough.
Step 3

Take the baking dish out of the oven and spoon blobs of dough over the peaches, sprinkle with demerara sugar and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the peach mixture is bubbling and the cobbler is golden and cooked through. Serve hot in bowls with ice cream or custard.
