I’m going to dub the next few weeks “Peach Week” since all I have been cooking with recently are peaches. I’m not complaining. I was never a huge fan of peaches until I tried a white peach and then I converted in an instant. White peaches are some of life’s best and if you’ve never had one, you are missing out. Donut peaches, especially, are delicious and now that my parents have been giving them to us freely, we have been living in peach heaven.
But I digress.
This recipe doesn’t use white peaches, rather traditional yellow. And it’s the perfect mixture of sweet, salty and tang. Even though I don’t typically reach for a yellow peach when I want to enjoy a piece of fruit, devouring them in desserts is an entirely different matter. Definitely use the baking sheet when baking these as the juices do overflow and unless you want to spend a fortnight cleaning out your oven, makes cleanup easy.
MINI PEACH COBBLERS
Yield: 8 servings
INGREDIENTS
8 peaches, sliced
4 T Triple Sec
6 T brown sugar
2 T cornstarch
1 1/4 c flour
1 T sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
5 T butter, unsalted and softened
1 c buttermilk
DIRECTIONS
Combine peaches with triple sec, brown sugar and cornstarch in a bowl. Divide out among ramekins.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar and baking powder together. Add in softened butter and mix with hands. Pour in buttermilk and stir well. Spoon batter into each individual ramekin, dividing out evenly. Place ramekins on a baking sheet (to catch drips) and bake in preheated oven at 400F for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the dough portion.

I love cobblers! And funny enough I think I prefer the yellow peaches to the white, though I’ll happily eat both. I’m not sure I’ve tried a donut peach. Something to look out for now!

Eek! You definitely need to be on the lookout for one. So so good. Definitely go for the white donut peaches and not the yellow ones.
Wow, these look so delicious, Grace! And easy to make – I’m going to have to try this out asap!

I’m embarrassed to admit this, but I’ve never had peach cobbler!! I think it’s because the only options I’ve ever had are the store-bought versions (which just aren’t my thing). I love the idea of a mini version, and these sound fairly simple to make! Plus, they look so gooey! 🙂
Yeah…store bought versions sometimes are a bit dry. And this really is simple to make!
Ohh yummy! I love peaches, they taste and smell like summer… Last week I made my first peach pie.. it was a success I think! These look really good!

Yay! Good job – peach pie is another delicious dessert 😉
I’ve never made a cobbler before but this peach version sounds delicious. And your photos are stunning!
Thanks! You’ll have to try a cobbler sometime 🙂
I just did a happy dance for peach week! Dave & I are obsessed with peaches and have literally been buying them by the bagful at the store (one clerk even commented “Wow! You guys must like peaches!” Haha) so needless to say I’m jealous that you’re getting all those fresh peaches from your parents!
Trust me, I’m so appreciative of it, especially since I know they can be expensive sometimes.
