Sweet Tooth Friday Guest Post: Mini Peach Cobblers

by Allison @ Alli 'n Son on June 2, 2011

Well hello fellow foodies! I’m Melissa from SugarDerby and I am so super excited to be guest posting on Allison’s awesome blog. She is definitely a “go to gal” in my book of food bloggers. Really glad she asked me to do this. About me… quickly…. I am a newbie in the blogging community. I am a lover of all things baked, battered, stuffed, iced, sprinkled, glazed, dipped, coated…. well, you get the idea! I love to bake… BUT no, I don’t want to open a bakery… (please, please… to all my baking blogging friends… can you relate with me on this one?… how many times have you heard “you should open a bakery!!!”?… like whomever telling you that is the very first person on the planet to eat something you baked and suggest you open your own bakery)…. I mean… really? So, rather than quit my comfortable day job and take the leap of “open my own business” faith… I decided to start a blog. And I am glad I did!! I actually found Alli-n-son because I did a google search for “sweet tooth” and she popped up! I was totally excited about Sweet Tooth Friday because… going back to my “comfortable day job”… I am a dental hygienist. I know! It’s weird… job security maybe? Anyways, “sweet tooth” has great meaning to me. Along with baking, I also blog about my love for vintage, some do-it-yourself, my great state of Texas, my extra sweet daddy and really anything else I find appealing.

Let’s talk food! One of my many obsessions is miniatures. Sweet, little, adorable, teeny, tiny miniatures. I just can not help but squeal when I see something mini… so, of course, an edible miniature is just the best invention ever… EVER! Any recipe I get my hands on I try to miniaturize it. This my friends, is one of those recipes. It is my mother’s peach cobbler recipe and it is amazing. Easy, amazing, and now… miniature. I hope you enjoy… and listen, if you are not just enamored by mini’s like I am, you can make this recipe in a regular 9×11 casserole dish. But I can’t lie, it’s really cute this way! Really cute!

Mini Peach Cobblers

Oh man!!! The best idea ever!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

You will need:

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • a dash of salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 stick of melted butter
  • brown sugar
  • cinnamon
  • 1 can diced peaches

I had a difficult time finding diced peaches… I literally went to 3 different stores in search of diced peaches… and then I remembered something…

I own a knife! And a cutting board! I can dice peaches myself… uh, yea… true story :) .

So, to begin… I used a a regular cupcake tin and a mini muffin tin. I’ll give you directions on both but the regular cupcake size cobblers turned out best.

Put 1 tsp of melted butter into each regular size muffin tin. (The mini muffin tin only needs 1/4 tsp.)

Now make your batter. Combine the first 5 ingredients by hand… sugar, flour, baking powder, salt and milk.

Put 2 tbsp of batter into each regular size muffin tin… on top of the melted butter. (Mini muffin only needs 1 tbsp)

Then put 1 tbsp diced peaches on top of the batter.

(Just 1 little diced peach per mini muffin tin)

Sprinkle with brown sugar and then cinnamon. I do a pretty generous “sprinkle”… I love brown sugar and cinnamon!

Bake the regular size muffin tins for 12 minutes. (The mini muffins took about 8 minutes)

Both baked at 350 degrees.

Let them cool almost completely before taking out of pan. Use a butter knife to loosen the edges then just lift them out.

You might lose a peach every now and then but no worries… just scoop it up and slide right back under.

Now see… the mini mini cobblers are good but….

You can’t really do this with the baby cobbler bites…

And of course I wanted ice cream… so…. I had ice cream!

I used a small cookie scoop to get that perfectly round dollop of ice cream.

I hope you all enjoy this recipe and really…. really, really…. go for some ice cream!

These babies are amazing!

Thanks again Allison! Happy Baking!

Hi Allison,
What a great idea to make mini cobblers. That is a great recipe, I have one almost like it in my cookbook and it is always delicious. I will sure try the mini’s, we will love the small amounts. Thanks for hosting today and hope you are having a fun day!

Melissa & Allison, I committed the cardinal sin of posting a cobbler recipe today too! So sorry! But I have to say that I had the exact same problem finding diced peaches, so I just cut them up myself too. :) I love the mini cobbler idea though… Everything’s cuter when it’s mini! Thanks for sharing!
sincerely,
your copycat

Mini cobblers – what a great idea! And I can absolutely relate to the “when are you going to open your own bakery” comments. If I had a nickel for every time I heard it, maybe I actually could afford to leave my day job and open my own bakery :) .

I can do that! And I’m fairly certain I have a can of peaches in the pantry. If not, I have some frozen blueberries that could be a good substitute. Great post!

Thank you for this recipe! I made it exactly as you described in the directions, but the cobblers became hollow and the bottoms were soggy from the butter/peaches and I had to scoop it out of the muffin tin separately from the top cobbler part. Maybe my oven is off and it didn’t get cooked completely? Any suggestions you have would be helpful, as I’m a terrible cook and would like to get better. My husband ate at least four of them so they couldn’t have been too bad!
