Quick and Easy Peach Cobbler

2 cups sliced fresh Georgia peaches
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 stick of butter

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together 1 cup self-rising flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk. Melt butter in microwave oven and pour into empty disposable baking pan. Be sure butter is sizzling and then add batter mixture and top with fresh peaches. Bake 25 to 30 minutes in the pre-heated oven until golden brown. If you can't get fresh or fresh frozen peaches, use one large can of Georgia peaches.

Frozen Peach Yogurt

2 cups fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and pureed
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 Tbsp. gelatin
1/4 cup water
3 cups plain yogurt
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. almond extract

Mix peaches and sugar until well blended, then set aside for 1/2 hour. Soften gelatin in water and warm gently over low heat until dissolved, then cool. Combine fruit mixture, gelatin and yogurt, then add other ingredients. Freeze to desired consistency.

Grilled Peaches

Ripe fresh peaches, peeled, and pitted

Cut peaches in half, then skewer and place over low heat on the grill until you see the beginnings of grill marks. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Peach Jam

10 medium ripe fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and finely chopped
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1-3/4 oz. powdered fruit pectin
3-1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. butter, melted

In an 8-quart kettle, combine the peaches and lemon juice. In a small bowl, combine the pectin and 1/4 cup of the sugar and mix well. Add butter and stir into the peach mixture. Over medium-high heat, bring the peach mixture to a full boil, stirring constantly. Stir in remaining 3-1/4 cups sugar, return the mixture to a full boil, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, quickly skim off any foam, and ladle the jam at once into hot, sterilized Ball Mason jars, leaving a 1/4-inch space at the top of each jar. Wipe the jar rims with a clean, damp cloth, fit them with hot lids, and lightly screw on the metal rings. Process in a bath of boiling water for 5 minutes (water should cover the jars by about 1 inch). Cool on a wire rack, and store in a cool, dry place.

Peach Tart

2 cups sliced fresh peaches, or more if desired
1 box yellow cake mix
butter (as much as is needed)

Place peaches in a 9x9-inch baking dish and cover with cake mix. Completely cover the top of cake mix with tabs of butter. Follow baking directions on the back of the cake mix box. Note: For another scrumptious dessert, substitute strawberries for peaches.
