desserts | Take advantage of sweet summer peaches with our delicious cobbler. It's even more flavorful when made with white-variety peaches.

Ingredients

6 medium peach(es), sliced
6 1/3 Tbsp sugar, divided
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp table salt
3 Tbsp reduced-calorie margarine
1/2 cup fat-free skim milk
Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 375ºF.

2 In a large saucepan, combine peaches, 1/3 cup of sugar (5 1/3 tablespoons), cornstarch, lemon juice and cinnamon; toss to coat peaches. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a boil; cook until mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat; transfer mixture to an 8-inch square baking pan.

3 To make the topping, combine flour, remaining tablespoon of sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Work in margarine with a fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir until flour mixture is evenly moistened.

4 Drop 8 tablespoons of topping mixture over peach mixture. Bake until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cut into 8 pieces and serve.

5 Flavor Booster: Enhance the peach flavor by swapping 1 teaspoon of almond extract for the lemon juice. And stir 2 tablespoons of sliced almonds into the topping, if desired (does not affect POINTS value).


Chef Tips

We renovated Peach Cobbler by:
• Reducing the amount of sugar in the filling.

• Using reduced-calorie margarine in the topping instead of butter and cutting back on the total amount.

• Using fat-free milk in the topping instead of whole milk.
