Clay Pot Peach Cobbler

This cobbler is easier than pie!  Hope you have some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on hand if you are serving this warm!

Isn't the cobbler just too cute in their own little clay pots?  I baked and served them straight from the clay pots, and my guests took home their little pots to remind them of a fun evening.  The pots were less than $1 at Home Depot.  Your guests will be impressed!

Clay Pot Peach Cobbler

Filling
3 cans drained sliced peaches
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup quick cooking Tapioca
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch Salt

Topping
1 2/3 cup flour
3 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1/8 teas. salt
6 tablespoons COLD unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2/3 cup heavy cream

12 mini clay pots (Home Depot)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350'.  Spray Pam in clay pots.  Place the 12 mini pots on a large cookie sheet.

Stir together all the filling ingredients.  Spoon peach filling into each pot until just below the top.

Biscuit Topping:   In a food processor, pulse together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.  Add the butter cubes and pulse until mixture resembles course crumbs.   Slowly pour in the 2/3 cup cream, pulse until the dough just comes together.   Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, and pat out.  Cut circles with a biscuit cutter or small glass (or you can just flatten a small piece with your hand).  Place dough on top of each peach filled pot.

Brush with a little cream over the rounds.  Bake about 30' minutes or until the tops are golden and the filling is bubbling.
