THE BEST PEACH COBBLER / DOUBLE CRUST

Steps:

• 1. Make the crust and chill for 30 minutes. Sift the flour, salt, and sugar.
• 2. Add flour mixture to food processor; add the shortening, pulse about 6 times. Add the cold butter, pulse 5 - 6 times. The mixture should look like gravel.
• 3. Then add the water, a little at a time.
• 4. Pulse until a ball forms.
• 5. Cut dough in half. Wrap each half in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
• 6. Filling: Melt butter in a med-large saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and water and cook until sugar is dissolved. Add nutmeg, salt, peaches, cinnamon, and flour.
• 7. Cook for 5 minutes or until thickened. Set aside to cool.
• 8. Assemble: Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
• 9. Once the dough is chilled, remove it from the refrigerator and roll each disk into a 9-inch square approximately 1/4-inch thick. Place into a 9 x 13 sprayed baking dish. I used my fingers to press into place. Bring up on the sides of the dish about an inch.
• 10. Pour the cooled filling into the crust.
• 11. Roll out the top crust; place over the filling (I roll the dough onto my rolling pin, then roll onto filling). It does not have to be perfect. I cut 4 - 6 slits to vent. I brush the top with heavy cream and sprinkle it with sugar but this is optional.
• 12. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbly (about 45 minutes). Let cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving.
• 13. Enjoy! This is also great served with a scoop of ice cream.
