When it comes to making a classic dessert to go along with our family dinners, this is one of my favorite recipes to make. What I really like about this Peach Cobbler recipe is the fact that its made with fresh, not canned, peaches.
Once you have it baked, you can serve it with some vanilla ice cream, vanilla yogurt or with some whipped topping on top. You will want to refrigerate any left-overs in an airtight container.

3 cups fresh sliced peaches
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup vegetable shortening

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. You will need to use a 2 quart glass baking dish to make this recipe.
Place fresh sliced peaches in the bottom of your baking dish that has been lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine the 2/3 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and the 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon until they are combined. Pour this mixture on top of the sliced peaches. Dot the 2 tablespoons of butter on top.
Re-using the same bowl, combine the 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and the 1/2 teaspoon salt.
