Peach Cobbler

Peaches are in an abundance in our home right now!  I recently bought a case and a half of Tennessee peaches and have had fun finding new things to make with them.  My favorite dessert is a Peach Cobbler.  However, I do not like all the junk that can go in a commercially made cobbler.  So, yes, you have guessed, I made one without the junk, a clean peach cobbler you could say!

PEACH COBBLER
10-12 peaches, pit removed and chopped
1/2 c local honey
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 TB of cinnamon
1 TB of arrowroot powder
Homemade pie crust
cinnamon and sugar for top of crust
Egg wash or 1/8 cup of raw cream, I prefer the cream

Preheat oven 400 degrees.  Mix all ingredients together and let rest for 5 mins.  Meanwhile, make your pie crust topping.  Place the peach mixture in a 9x13 glass dish and top with the crust.  Brush the crust with the raw cream and sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top, if desired.  Bake 20-25 mins, until mixture is bubbling.  Enjoy with some homemade vanilla ice cream!

Easy Pie Crust-Coconut oil

Pie crust can be a pain to make at times.  I like this one because I just mix it all together in the dish I am using and press it to the sides.  Any time I use coconut oil, I always use unrefined, raw coconut oil.  I don't notice the coconut flavor in this pie, but then again, I don't notice it ever. 

Pie Crust
1 1/2 cups + 3 TB of flour
1/2 cup of coconut oil
3 TB of milk
1 1/2 tsp sugar, optional (I use it sometimes)
1/2 tsp salt

Mix all of the ingredients together and roll it out to your desired shape!
