Mrs. Bowden'S Peach Cobbler - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. sliced peaches
1 3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. flour
pinch of salt
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. milk
1/4 tsp. almond extract
1 stick butter

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
Slice peaches and mix with 3/4 cup sugar.
Let stand 2 hours.
Sift flour, salt and baking powder together; mix with 1 cup of sugar.
Stir in milk and add almond extract.
Melt the butter in a deep baking dish and pour the batter over it.
Do not stir.
Pour the peaches over the top of the batter to form a layer.
Bake in a moderate (350\u00b0) oven for 50 to 55 minutes.
If you use a glass baking dish, bake at 325\u00b0. Check it, as you do not want the juices to caramelize.
