as promised, i am getting us ready for peach season! summer peaches picked straight from the tree don't compare to any other peaches out there. they are just so juicy & sweet. we always get a big bushel from the local orchard everytime. aside from eating them fresh, i also love making classic desserts with them like pies, crumbles, cakes & cobblers! for this cobbler recipe i did a little coconut twist to things because the flavours of peaches & coconut go together so well. i did a simple peach filling with a coconut infused topping, but i incorporated lorann oils coconut bakery emulsion into both layers. it is not over powering, but the subtleness of the coconut emulsion with the peaches really brings all the flavours together. i always keep the skin of my peaches on as it is where the nutrients are & it gives the cooked peaches a gorgeous red hue. i seriously can't wait for you to try this cobbler! it won't make it through the day.
