Fresh Peach Cobbler

By MaryEllen

This recipe was given to me many years ago by Mrs. Orin Stevens of Fargo, ND. She told me she'd gotten it from a church cookbook. I've used fresh, frozen and canned peaches with equal success.

• 1 1/2 cups sugar, divided*
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Per the reviews:
Use more peaches than called for for a 9x13 pan. If using 3 cups, do it in an 8 inch square pan. Add cinnamon and nutmeg to both fruit and batter. Consider using Brown Sugar for the crust part.
