Ingredients

Basic Piecrust for Double crust Pie:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening, chilled
1/3 cup ice water

For the Peach cobbler:

3 pounds medium peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for top crust
4 tablespoons butter, chilled, cut into small pieces

Directions

For the Pie crust: Sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Add the shortening and cut it in with a fork or pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs with a few pea-sized bits. Stirring with a fork, gradually add enough of the water until the mixture clumps together. Gather up the dough and press into a flat disc, wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate for 1 hour.

For the Peach Cobbler: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Roll out the dough to a large square that is 1/8-inch thick. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 6 circles. Using a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut out 6 circles and keep cold. Butter 6 (4-ounce) ramekins. Place the smaller rounds of dough into the ramekins and press down into the bottom and sides. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely. In a medium bowl, toss the peaches, cornstarch, sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon. Fold in the butter. Divide the peach mixture between the 6 ramekins. Cover the peach mixture with the larger rounds of dough, letting the dough come down the sides of the ramekins. Pinch the dough firmly onto the top edge of the dish. Cut a few slits in the top of the dough. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and place back in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the cobbler from the oven and sprinkle with cinnamon.

So good!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this recipe using the individual ramekins before but I needed to serve a bigger crowd so I made it in a 13 x 9... casserole dish and it worked out great. I left the dough recipe the same but doubled the peach recipe. It got great compliments from everyone. I also served it with vanilla bean ice cream. Try it, it won't disappoint!Read more

I didn't quite get it right but they still came out delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used peaches I'd frozen at the end of the summer and forgot to defrost them first, and I also forgot to add the butter to... the peach filling, but despite my unintended modifications, I was delighted by the results. I let them bake longer (since the peaches were frozen) and my crusts didn't get brown, but the texture of the cobbler was wonderful - the peaches turned creamy (not mushy) and the crusts melded with the filling, the flavor was very natural and the quality of the peaches came through. For this reason I think it's important to start with great peaches. Prep was as easy as a scratch pie can get. I'd definitely make this again. Vanilla ice cream on top highly recommended as well.Read more

Ok
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

The dough tasted like nothing and it wasn't done on the bottom - also it kept rising while it was cooking so there was barely... any room for the peaches. I used fresh peaches which was the only thing good about it to me.Read more
