Texas Fresh Peach Cobbler

Submitted by Chemaine

"This dessert tops juicy fruit with a biscuit-like topping. The batter goes into the dish first, then rises up through the fruit as it bakes. My family loves this and will reheat and eat through out the day."

I tore this recipe out of the June 2007 issue of Cooking Light magazine. Wow - the flavors of this dish are amazing... so fresh and sweet. I loved every bite.
