Take advantage of sweet summer peaches with our delicious cobbler. It's even more flavorful when made with white-variety peaches.

Ingredients

• 6 medium peach(es), peeled, pitted and sliced
• 6 1/3 Tbsp sugar, divided
• 1 Tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp table salt
• 3 Tbsp reduced-calorie margarine
• 1/2 cup fat-free skim milk

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  
  
• In a large saucepan, combine peaches, 1/3 cup of sugar (5 1/3 tablespoons), cornstarch, lemon juice and cinnamon; toss to coat peaches. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a boil; cook until mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat; transfer mixture to an 8-inch square baking pan.
  
  
• To make topping, combine flour, remaining tablespoon of sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Work in margarine with a fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir until flour mixture is evenly moistened.
  
  
• Drop 8 tablespoons of topping mixture over peach mixture. Bake until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cut into 8 pieces and serve.

Notes

• You can enhance the peach flavor of this recipe by swapping 1 teaspoon of almond extract for the lemon juice. And stir 2 tablespoons of sliced almonds into the topping, if desired (does not affect POINTS value).
