Bourbon Summer Fruit Cobbler
- 2 cups sliced peaches (about 3 medium)
- 1 cup pitted halved sweet cherries
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/4 bourbon
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup self rising flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup white sugar
- more dark brown sugar for sprinkling
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix together the sliced peaches, cherries, and blueberries with the bourbon and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. Let that sit while you mix together the rest of the batter.
In a large bowl, whisk together the white sugar and flour. While stirring, mix in the milk gradually until all flour and any lumps are incorporated.
Pour the melted butter into a seasoned cast iron skillet. Then, pour batter mixture over butter. Scatter the fruit on top. Then, sprinkle over any juice/bourbon that has accumulated at the bottom of the bowl.
Sprinkle a little more dark brown sugar on top and place the oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cobbler is bubbly and has begun to brown.
Serve with a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream.
