Peach Cobbler

 

There seems to be a recurring trend in my house, fruit on the verge of going bad. It’s awful, I know. See, it all starts when I go to the grocery store hungry (read as: when I go to Whole Foods starving). I see fruits and veggies that no one really eats, but for some reason in my state of starvation, I think that I’m going to make all these amazing foods. That’s never the case. Even when I make a list ahead of time, I end up picking up the most random items. And what do you know, I end up snacking on a bag of “low-calorie” chips and the food goes right into the fridge never to be seen — or eaten.

And that’s how I discovered peaches sitting at the bottom on the fruit drawer so ripe, that when I sliced through them, they literally split in half. Not that I’m complaining — pitting fruit is not my idea of fun. So I spent a good 10 minutes Googling my options for peach recipes before I decided on a cobbler, only because it seemed like the simplest option. As I’ve mentioned on several occasions, I’m not one for making desserts with more than 7 steps (and that’s stretching it for me).

This is not a low-fat recipe. I repeat, this is not a low-fat, low sugar, low calorie cobbler. But it is so worth all the calories. You can even things out with fat-free vanilla ice cream.
