Easy Peasy Southern Peach Cobbler

You will need 4 cups of fresh peaches, peeled and sliced.

My family loves cobblers of any kind but this one might just be my favorite. It is incredibly easy and doesn't include any battle wounds in order to gather the fruit (like blackberry cobbler). We often serve it when we have guests over for dinner or dessert over.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray casserole dish with non-stick spray. (There is probably plenty of butter in this dessert but I don't like to take any chances.) Peel and slice 4 cups of fresh peaches OR you can use a large can of peaches (drained).

The batter

Melt one stick of butter. Drizzle over the peaches. If you are as forgetful as I am and accidentally mix the butter in with all of the other ingredients it will turn out great! You can also reduce the amount of butter if you would like to cut costs or calories.

Mix together: 1 c. all purpose flour, 1 c. sugar, 1 t. baking powder, and 1 c. milk.

Ready for the oven!

Pour batter over the peaches and butter. DO NOT MIX.

Enjoy!

Bake for 40 minutes or until top is slightly browned. In my opinion the dish is best served warm. When I have served this after church I bake it so that it is done right as we are about to leave. Then I just turn the oven off and leave the cobbler in the oven. When we get home it is still hot. You could also try making it in the CrockPot.

Serve Peach Cobbler with plenty of vanilla ice cream and lots of friends.

Does your family enjoy peach cobbler?

August Reads

None Like Him: 10 Ways God is Different From Us by Jen Wilkin : I'm quickly becoming quite the fan of Mrs. Jen Wilkin. I've been working through her 1 Peter Bible Study this summer and I absolutely loved reading through this book on the attributes of God. I found myself reminded of so many things and almost felt a sense of relief as I contemplated what God is like. This book was a delight to read. I love that there is now a book on God's attributes written especially for women. Pure awesomeness! I highly recommend this book for both new believers and those with years of experience. I also think it would make a great book club book. The Power of a Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian: This book is one that I have been wanting to read for years and I just never got around to it. I am so glad that I finally took the time to read and pray through this book! What better gift could I give my husband the past month than to spend time earnestly praying for him through a

Our First Tent Camping Experience

Earlier in June we embarked on a new adventure. TENT CAMPING! Two summers ago we enjoyed a wonderful time camping in a borrowed pop-up camper but this was our first experience sleeping in a tent as a family. We loaded up our very full van and headed to Land Between the Lakes in Western Kentucky for a new adventure. It was wonderful. One of the neatest aspects of our trip was the fact that Nina & Poppy Steve (Brandon's parents) were able to meet up with us! (They live a good 10 hours away from us so this was a real treat.) We had so much spending time with them. We stayed at Hillman Ferry Campground and I would definitely stay there again. Hillman Ferry Campground has a lovely beach with an area roped off for swimming. The kids enjoyed playing in the sand and I even took them swimming in the lake. I have been swimming many times in a lake but I think this was my children's first real time swimming in a lake. (The closest lake to us no longer
