Peaches and Nectarines
Summers are here and so are the Stone fruits. The stores are flooded with variety of Cherries, Peaches, Plums, Nectarines. What a colorful site to see the aisles loaded with beauties, as I call these. .These not only look pretty but are also a treat to have it on it's own, or in desserts. Baked desserts, breads, chutneys, drinks what is there that you can't make with these juicy treats!!
Few recipes from the blog with summer/stone fruits.. Ginger Peach Iced Tea, Rosemary Focaccia with Cherries, Chocolate Cherry and Hazelnut Cake
Peaches and Nectarines look so much similar in appearance and are related also. But when observed carefully, you will see there is a difference in the texture of the skin.
Frimer fruits are best to use for baking and the soft ones can be eaten on it's own or used for making different beverages.
Peaches and Nectarine make and excellent choice for summer treats. Loaded with fibres, potassium,Vit A and C.
What are Fruit Cobblers
Cobblers are sweet or savoury dish consisting of fruit filling baked, covered with batter or dough. In some cobbler recipes, batter is poured on the fruit filling and some have thick pie crust on top or bottom or both. Many like to top cobbler with crumbles also.
Many people also confuse, cobbler with crumbles or crisp. These three may sound similar but are a lot different from each other.
Cobbler is a baked fruit dessert layered or topped with thick dough of biscuits or pies. In many versions now, fruit filling is also baked with batter made with flour and milk. this has cakey texture as the batter bakes but down below is the juicy baked fruit filling. Cobbler is similar to Clafoutis , but clafoutis has more of a pancake like thickness and
Crisp-In crisp the fruit filling is baked with crunchy and crispy layer of ingredients. The layer can be made with flour, oats, nuts mixed with sugar, butter and spices like cinnamon, nutmeg etc. The topping is grainy an dthe dish is baked till it is crispy and golden brown in color.
Crumble- Many fins crumbles similar to crisp but in traditional crumble recipes, the topping is strudel kinds, made with flour, sugar and butter. It rarely has oats or nuts.Cobbler topping is not clumpy like crispy topping.

Peaches Nectarines or in fact any fruit of your choice like berries, apples, pears, cherries.. Use fresh fruits or use canned ones ..I love adding fresh fruits but canned fruits/ pie fillings also work well.
Pancake Mix-Take your favourite pancake mix. My favorite pancake mix if the one that I get from Whole Foods store with the goodness of whole wheat flour.
Incase you don't have the pancake mix, you can use the same amt of flour(Whole Wheat/All Purpose) along with 2 tsp of baking powder and use it for batter.
Other ingredients are Milk, Vanilla Essence or spices like Cinnamon/Cardamom/Nutmeg.
