Peach Cobbler Roll

By jasonhewitt

Ingredients

• 1/2 c butter
• 2 C sugar
• 2 C water
• 1 1/2 C pre-sifted self-rising flour
• 1/2 C shortening
• 1/3 C milk
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 2 C fresh peaches, finely chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Melt butter in a 9 X 13 baking dish. Heat sugar and water in medium saucepan until sugar is dissolved. Cut shortening into flour until mixture resembles cornmeal. Add milk and stir with fork until dough leaves side of bowl. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead only until smooth. Roll dough out to form a large rectangle about ¼ inch thick.

Sprinkle cinnamon over the peaches and spread the mixture evenly over the dough. Roll dough up like a jelly roll. Dampen the edge of the dough to seal. Cut the roll into about 16 slices. Place the slices on edge in the pan of melted butter. Carefully pour sugar syrup around the rolls. This will look like too much liquid, but the crust will absorb it.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until most of the juice has been absorbed.
