Peaches With Raisins And Cranberries Recipes

PEACHES WITH RAISINS AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• wash, peel and slice peaches. Put fruit fresh on them and mix to keep from turning brown.
• Put sliced peaches in a large pot and pour sugar on top. Put on medium heat until sugar melts and turn to syrup. Cook just until peaches are tender. At this point you can add anything you want or can just plain. I added ground cinnamon to taste and added a package of dried cranberries with raisins. Last year I just put raisins and cinnamon.
• process jars as you would to can any other fruit or vegetable. Keep jars and 2 part lids hot. Fill jars within 1/4 inch from top of jar. Secure lids and process in a hot water bath about 5 mminutes.
• Keep away from drafts until jars seal. We put these peaches on pancakes, waffles, ice cream, mke cobblers or just right out of jar. So good. I do my apples the same way.

QUICK PEACHES AND GOLDEN RAISINS COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place frozen peaches in an 8 by 8 glass baking dish, defrost in microwave for 3 minutes on high. While the peaches are defrosting, make the cobbler topping. In a bowl, combine the biscuit mix with a 1/2 cup of water, stir until thoroughly combined but do not overwork. In another bowl combine 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, pepper, a pinch of salt and raisins. Remove peaches from the microwave and combine with the sugar mixture in baking dish. Top the seasoned peaches with biscuit mix, use your fingers to press out until even. Top the biscuit mix with almonds. Mix remaining cinnamon and sugar together and sprinkle over the biscuits. Bake until cobbler top is firm and lightly golden and peaches are bubbly and hot, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Serve warm as is or with ice cream and whipped cream if you have some on hand.
