Brookwood Grill Peach Cobbler
For the cobbler:
30 oz. (1 1/2 20 oz. bags) frozen peaches
Nonstick cooking spray
2 piecrusts, rolled into 10-inch squares
1/2 C. cornstarch
1 C. cold water
1/4 C. peach brandy
2/3 C. light brown sugar
1/4 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. nutmeg
For the caramel topping:
1/2 C. (1 stick) salted butter
3/4 C. light brown sugar
1 T. cold water
1 1/2 C. walnuts, coarsely chopped
To make the cobbler:
Preheat oven to 275°F. In a large bowl, add peaches and set aside. Spray an 8 x
8-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Fit one piecrust in pan securely, lining
the sides 1 to 2 inches. Make sure to seal all tears in the dough. Bake for 10
minutes, until dough is soft and looks "melted." Remove pan from oven and set
pan aside. Increase temperature to 350°F.
In a large saucepan off heat, mix cornstarch and cold water, stirring until
smooth. Add peach brandy. Place over medium heat and whisk until thick and goes
from white to translucent. The mixture will pull away from the sides and bottom
of the pan. Add brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg and whisk until
completely smooth and sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat. The mixture will be
very thick. Add mixture to peaches and combine gently. Pour peach mixture into
cooked crust and cover with top crust. Press down lightly on top crust, tucking
it around the filling, and carefully fit edges together for a complete seal.
Don't worry if it doesn't look smooth, the mixture will be covered completely
with the topping. Make sure there is about an inch of space left on top. If not,
gently press the dough down. Bake for 1 hour, or until crust is golden brown.
To make the topping:
About 15 minutes before the cobbler is ready, prepare topping. In a saucepan
over low heat, combine butter and sugar and whisk until melted. Bring to a boil.
Add water. The mixture will bubble wildly. Continue to whisk until smooth. When
cobbler is done, remove topping from heat and fold in walnuts. Pour over top
crust of cobbler.
Makes 9 servings.
