6 c. fresh sliced peaches
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. cornstarch
1 1/4 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. water

Prepare biscuit dough using recipe.

RICH BISCUIT DOUGH:

2 c. flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar
1/2 c. shortening
2/3 c. milk

Sift together dry ingredients, cut in shortening and add milk. Stir with a fork until a soft dough is formed. Turn out on a lightly floured surface. Knead about 30 seconds and roll about 1/4 inch thick.

Cobbler: Add lemon juice to peaches. Mix dry ingredients with water. Add peaches. Bring to a boil, stirring gently to keep juice smooth. Add extract. Line sides of a casserole or baking pan with strips of rolled biscuit dough. Pour in 1/2 of peach mixture. Add more strips of dough and peaches in layers. Top with a layer of dough, dot with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Freezes very well.
