A Southern Family Dessert

Being a southern girl and raised in the South, we love our traditions and family recipes. Since we are staying at our house in North Carolina, there is a lot of fresh produce, mostly locally grown.  Yesterday we were able to pick up some great peaches and so I knew that my Pop-Pop’s homemade peach cobbler was in the plan. 

I feel like peach cobbler is one of the southern traditional, comfort desserts.

The Final Peach Cobbler Product

My Pop-Pop makes so many wonderful things from scratch and peach cobbler just happens to be one of my favorite ones!  This is such an easy recipe and one that you make your own! The recipe calls for fruit of any kind, so you can make blueberry, peach, apple, cherry, or whatever you want!

 This cobbler recipe is one that you can make and have with a nice scoop of ice cream! Another really nice thing about this recipe is that you can save any leftovers and refrigerate for at least a couple of days.  Just take out however much you want, throw it in the microwave for a few seconds and you have got a really nice dessert.  My Pop-Pop’s Peach Cobbler recipe is one that will definitely continue to be passed down.

Enjoy y’all!
