Donna’s Peach Blueberry Cobbler

What a great summer treat! It may become your favorite peach dessert recipe. I like it better than most cobblers because it is light, moist and has a cake-like texture.

3 medium fresh peaches, peeled and pitted 1 cup fresh blueberries 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 cup Splenda or additional 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Batter
1/3 cup butter or margarine 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup flour 3/4 cup fat-free milk

Topping
3/4 cup boiling water 2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 7 x 11 inch baking pan. Thinly slice peaches and place in large bowl. Add blueberries. Combine sugar, Splenda, and cinnamon. Sprinkle on fruit and stir to coat well. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine butter and sugar. Beat well. Add vanilla, baking powder and salt. Alternately add flour and milk and beat well. Spoon into baking pan.

Top with peaches and blueberries. Bring water to a boil in a small pan. Add butter and stir until melted. Pour water over the fruit. Bake for 1 hour or until golden brown on top and filling is bubbling.

Let set 30 minutes before serving.

Note: Frozen peaches and blueberries can be used in place of fresh fruit.
