How to Pick the Perfect Peach:
When shopping for peaches there are a few things to look at to make sure you are picky the right ones. With any fruit, the first indicator of good fruit is the color. Look for a peach that is bright in color without brown or green spots.
You can also feel is a peach is good by gently squeezing it. You want your peach to be soft without being mushy. A firm peach will still need some time to ripen.
How to Peel a Peach:
It can be tricky to peel a peach without losing much of the fruit and only removing the skin. I like to place them in boiling water for just about 10-15 seconds. Remove them from the water and place in ice to stop the cooking process. Once cool enough to handle you can gently use a knife to peel and the skin should come right off. Once peeled you can slice in half in remove the pit then slice for your cobbler.
Storage and Reheating:
Refrigerator
Store leftover peach cobbler covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freezer
Freeze the baked cobbler for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
Reheating
Warm individual servings in the microwave or reheat the baking dish in a 325°F oven until heated through.
