Peach Cobbler
The traditional cobbler is a fruit dish topped with a crisp biscuit. You can reduce calories and fat by minimizing the amount of topping.
♥ Use seasonal ripe fruits to avoid adding a lot of extra sugar.
♥ Use nonfat sour cream and nonfat milk for creamy texture.

Ingredients for filling:
6 cups fresh peaches, sliced

1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
5 tbsp. butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

1 tsp. raw sugar
Preheat oven to 350º. Combine peaches, sugar, and cornstarch. Place in a baking dish. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Add butter and whisk in until coarse. Stir in sour cream to soften dough.
