Peach Cobbler Cups (Printable Version)

A simple twist on peach cobbler with layers of spiced peaches, crisp cobbler topping, and ice cream served in single portions.

# Ingredients:

→ Making the Peach Spice Mix

01 - Peel and dice 2 cups of fresh peaches.
02 - 2 tablespoons white sugar
03 - 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
04 - A half-teaspoon of cinnamon powder
05 - 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg powder
06 - One teaspoon of lemon juice

→ Putting Together Crumbly Topping

07 - Half a cup of plain flour
08 - A quarter cup packed light brown sugar
09 - A quarter cup of white sugar
10 - A quarter cup of chilled unsalted butter, diced into cubes
11 - 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
12 - A small pinch of salt

→ Assembly Needs

13 - Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
14 - Dash of cinnamon for decoration (optional)

# Steps:

01 - Toss the diced peaches, both sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice into a medium pot and set it on medium heat. Stir once in a while as it cooks for 5-7 minutes, until the peaches soften and a syrup forms. Take off the heat and leave to cool.
02 - Turn your oven to 350°F (or 175°C). Cover a baking tray with parchment. In a bowl, stir together the flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and, using your hands or a pastry cutter, mix until it's crumbly. Spread the mixture evenly on the tray. Bake for 10-12 minutes until it's nicely golden and crisp. Let it cool off completely.
03 - Grab a clear glass or jar. Start layering with the peach mix, then add whipped cream or ice cream, followed by the crumble. Repeat until the glass is full. Sprinkle cinnamon on top if you like. Enjoy right away!

# Notes:

01 - Peach Substitutions: No fresh peaches? Canned or frozen (drained) work just as well!
02 - Extra Crumble: Whip up more topping and store it in an airtight jar for another dessert session.
03 - Crunchy Tip: Serve as soon as it's ready so the topping stays crisp.
