Steps:
- Blanch and peel peaches; cut them in half; remove the pits, and slice them coarse.
- Note: to blanch peaches-have ready a large bowl of ice-cold water, a slotted spoon, and a saucepan of boiling water deep enough to cover the peaches; with the slotted spoon place the peaches in the boiling water, two or three at a time (if the peaches are fully ripe, they will need only about 15 seconds in the boiling water, if not quite ripe, they will need more); with the slotted spoon, raise a peach from the water and move your thumb firmly over the skin; if the skin has loosened enough it will wrinkle and feel loose; at that point transfer it to the ice water; peel with your fingers, starting at the stem end.
- Place sliced peaches in a 3-quart saucepan with the sugar, butter, and water; stir briefly over med-high heat just until the mixture comes to a boil; remove from the heat and set aside.
- Adjust oven rack to the middle of the oven; preheat to 375°.
- Generously butter a shallow ovenproof baking dish with at least a 2-quart capacity; it can be larger but not smaller.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
- In a small bowl, beat the butter with the vanilla and almond extract; beat in the sugar to mix.
- On low speed add in half of the milk, then half of the sifted dry ingredients, the remainder of the milk then the remainder of the dry ingredients, scraping the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed and beating only until mixed.
- Pour the batter into the baking dish and spread it smooth.
- With a large slotted spoon, place the prepared peaches evenly over the batter (reserve the peach syrup for the moment); place the dish in the oven.
- Now, pouring the peach syrup (it will be thin) over the fruit will be easier if you pour it in two additions into a 2-cup measuring cup, then reach into the oven and quickly pour it over the top of the fruit in the baking dish.
- Place a cookie sheet on a rack below the baking dish to catch spills.
- Bake for 20 minutes; then decrease temperature to 325° and bake for 25 minutes.
- Serve immediately or within 20-30 minutes on large flat plates or in dessert bowls, spooning some of the thickened syrup from the bottom over or alongside each portion.
- Serve plain or with ice cream.
LAYERS OF LOVE -FRESH GEORGIA PEACH COBBLER-PIE
I am a Georgia Peach/Girl; and I love anything peach -pies, ice cream, cakes, etc. When making and eating a delicious pie -especially peach pie -I am thrilled with a crispy crust -how about 3 crusts?! Although you can make pies and cobblers "your way" there is a distinction between a cobbler and a pie. A cobbler as a general rule does not have a bottom crust & has a streusel topping. This pie not only has a top and bottom crust; but the middle has a layer of baked crust pieces in the middle of two layers of peaches. I use "Never Fail crust posted in "my kitchen." Delicious Cobbler-Pie!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare Peaches: Cut an x into peaches. Blanch peaches in boiling water for 10-15 seconds. Peel.
- Slice peaches, and toss with sugar, butter, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, corn starch, Vanilla extract and lemon juice; mix well. Set aside while preparing crusts.
- Prepare crusts: Use homemade or purchased pie crusts to make three (3) crusts. Take the first crust (make sure that you have enough dough/crust to cover the bottom and up the sides of the pan or dish you are working with.). Use a deep enough dish to hold two layers of peaches. I used a 2 qt. glass Pyrex casserole dish. Insert the crust and partially bake for 10 minutes -until the bottom of the crust is set and a light tan color.
- Place half of the peach mixture on top of the partially baked bottom crust in the dish.
- Take another crust and cut into 4 strips, the length of the pie dish. Place strips on ungreased cookie sheet; bake 18 minutes. Cool enough to handle.
- Arrange the baked pastry strips on top of the peach mixture in the pie dish. It is okay if they break as you fit them in the pie dish -you won't see them after the pie is put together.
- Cover the pastry strips with the remainder half of the peach mixture.
- Place the top crust over the peaches and seal the edges. Cut a couple of slits in the top of the crust (or you can make a lattice top crust).
- Bake in a 350 degree oven about 1 hour or until crust is golden brown.
- NOTE: Make your own crust (You can use my "Never Fail Pie Crust," OR purchase refrigerated pie crust, such as Pillsbury pie crusts. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/bread/other-bread/never-fail-pie-crust.html?p=42
