Skillet Peach Cobbler
Summer! Why do we love it so??? For the Skillet Peach Cobbler of course! ;)
Because of the amazing produce and local vegetables and fruits we can get our hands on! We are lucky in my area to have a few places where you can pick your own. Blueberries, Strawberries, and of course this time of year you can never get enough Peaches! We headed down to our local Peach Farm at Bennet Orchards in Delaware, the kids and I picked over a bushel! We have peaches to get us through the winter for smoothies and snacks, you name it, we'll be eating peaches to get us through the darkness of winter!
The kids wanted me to make peach cobbler and what better to do on a Sunday when a continual ban of storms came through all day. We hunkered down after a wet trip to the grocery store, cut peaches for hours to freeze them and I worked on this healthier version of Skillet Peach Cobbler! Any time I can use my favorite Le Creuset pans I'm in heaven too! So here's everything you need below, we hope you enjoy it! Let us know if you make it and what you think! Oh! Don't forget to grab the vanilla ice cream to top it all off!!
