Directions
Who knew Peach Cobbler was so quick to make and can be rumbled up from ingredients kept in the store cupboard in under an hour?
The pudding was particularly welcome this week as we had our first decent snow in London for around 5 years. We all went sledging after school and then tucked into the peach cobbler to warm us up.
This recipe is from the BBC Good Food website, Jamie Oliver has a slightly more sophisticated one if you are making it for a dinner party. We served ours with the finest custard we could find, but I believe it is more traditional pair it with vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy, it is fun to make and lip-smackingly good!

Spoon the dough in dollops on top of the peaches, creating a good covering, but leave some gaps for the dough to spread into. Sprinkle with a little caster sugar then bake for 40 mins, until golden. Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream or custard |
