Nothing says summertime like sitting on the porch enjoying a bowl of warm peach cobbler made with fresh-picked peaches and topped with cool, creamy vanilla ice cream. But who wants to sacrifice slipping (happily) into a bathing suit for a few bites of dessert? Our peach cobbler recipe re-do lets you have your cobbler and bathing suit too! Traditional peach cobbler calls for buttery batter, so we streamlined the batter into golden discs of low-fat pastry. We kept some of the butter for flakiness but added yogurt for tenderness and flavor. Since ripe peaches are sweet and juicy on their own, we were able to reduce the amount of sugar by 75%, which translates into a huge calorie savings. All of our tricks and swaps reduced saturated fat from 10 grams to 3.5 grams, total fat from 16 grams to 6 grams and overall calories from 480 to 280. And that means you can add a dollop of ice cream too! |

Serves 6
2 1/2 c. fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
3 Tbsp. organic brown rice flour
1/4 c. sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 1/2 c. unbleached, all-purpose organic flour
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
3 Tbsp. Henry's Unsalted Butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
3/4 c. fat free vanilla yogurt
3 Tbsp. Henry's Fat Free Milk
2 tsp. turbinado sugar
Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix peaches with flour, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Place in a 9-inch pie pan. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Cut butter into dry ingredients using a pastry blender, or two knives. When mixture resembles coarse corn meal, stir in yogurt. Roll out into a rectangle, about 1/2-inch thick. Using a drinking glass or circular cookie cutter, cut out six 3-inch circles. Place over peaches. Brush pastry with milk, and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden.
