Sutton has been asking for peaches, so her grandparents brought us back some fresh ones from Georgia yesterday. This morning, I realized we needed to eat them soon before they went bad…so OF COURSE they were destined to become some kind of dessert. After a quick google search, I found @sallysbakeblog fresh peach cobbler with a yummy biscuit topping and knew this was my winner. I had everything I needed on hand and it was quick and easy (I literally made it while the kids ate breakfast). I love how it has a more rustic look to it…so no one will question it’s homemade quality We ate some tonight with ice cream and it was so delectable. I halved the recipe, which I’ve made the adjustments to below but you can just double it if you want to bake it in a 9×13 dish.
