Lazy Peach Cobbler
I made lazy blueberry cobbler a few months ago and now I think it’s time for peach. This recipe is so low effort and takes absolutely no time at all.. Picture juicy peach slices bubbling beneath a buttery, golden crust, all achieved with minimal effort. This recipe requires just a handful of pantry staples and a few easy steps, perfect for those lazy afternoons when you crave something delicious without having to do too much. Serve it on a nice summer evening, warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Why measure with your heart?
You may see in my recipes that I do not provide a measurement for vanilla and occasionally for other ingredients. I like to allow you as much creative freedom as possible without destroying the recipe. I trust your instincts. Now obviously don’t go and pour an entire bottle of vanilla in your batter, but you do not have to be super meticulous with it. If I don’t measure it why should you?
For a pinch of salt I pour the salt in my hand and use my pointer finger and thumb to pinch, then add it to my bowl.
All of my recipes are written as I do them.
From a young age, my mom used to always get on me for not following recipes to a T, but as I got older I realized that the creative freedom I gave myself fueled my love and passion for baking. In the kitchen I allow my mind to wander and test the limits of each recipe. Sometimes resulting in disaster but more often than not resulting in a delicious outcome.
