Ingredients

FILLING INGREDIENTS

12 Fresh peaches
2 1/4 Cups of light brown sugar
3/4 Cups bourbon (we used Jim Beam’s Hot Toddy Bourbon Whiskey)
3 Tablespoons dark maple syrup
3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 Tablespoon lemon juice
2 Tablespoons cinnamon

TOPPING INGREDIENTS

4 Cups all-purpose flour
2 Teaspoons baking soda
4 Teaspoons baking powder
1/2 Cup fine granulated sugar
1 1/2 Sticks of butter
1 1/3 Cups of buttermilk
1 Cup of heavy whipping cream
1 Teaspoon salt

Instructions

Prepare your grill to 375 degrees.
Coat your cast iron skillet liberally with butter.
Slice 12 peaches and place peaches in skillet.
Combine brown sugar, 2 Tablespoons of flour, and cinnamon.
Whisk thoroughly to remove clumps.
Add bourbon, maple syrup, vanilla extract and lemon juice to the brown sugar mixture.
Once well combined, pour over peaches.
In a stand mixer, combine remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
Cut butter sticks into thin slices and add to flour mixture.
Mix thoroughly to remove clumps.
Once flour mixture is thoroughly mixed, add buttermilk and cream.
Spread topping mixture over peaches.
(Note that during grilling, the topping will rise and expand. So don’t fret if you can not cover all the peaches entirely)
Place cobbler on the grill at 375 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
Once finished, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy!
