It’s July and its Peach time just about everywhere in the country. All of your favorites like O’Henry, Red Top, SunCrest, or Red Haven are in season or just about to be. Even though you can eat your fill of these mouthwatering, chin dripping, summer treats it still may not be enough if you are a real peach lover.

If you’re a cook, you’ll love the flavor of this Easy Peach Cobbler recipe from www.allrecipes.com that helps take advantage of the summer peach bounty. Not so culinarily inclined? Take on this simple recipe for a dessert that everyone will love.

Here’s what you’ll need
· 12 fresh peaches, pitted and sliced

· 1-cup water

· 1 cup white sugar

· 1/2-teaspoon ground cinnamon

· 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix (I told you this was the easy route, besides you can use organic cake mix if you like)

· 1 (8 ounce) package organic cream cheese

· 1/2-cup butter

DIRECTIONS
· Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

· Spread peach slices evenly into a 9×13 inch-baking dish, combine water and sugar in a small bowl. Stir to dissolve, and then pour mixture over peaches.

· Sprinkle cinnamon over peach slices, followed by dry cake mix. Top cake mix with pats of cream cheese. Dot cobbler with butter or non-dairy spread.

· Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, until golden.

If you really want to make it special add some fresh organic blackberries on top before serving.
And even though this is a “dessert,” why not throw caution to the wind and serve for breakfast on a hot summer morning with a dollop of cool yogurt. It will be a nice change from the norm for you and someone you love. Now that’s Hmmm, hmmmm great!
