Claire Saffitz Makes Peach Cobbler | What’s For Dessert
Introducing on the Dessert Person YouTube channel, the inaugural recipe from Claire’s new book, What’s For Dessert. It’s an easy but carefully crafted recipe that honors one of the pure joys of late summer: ripe peaches. This is the peach cobbler of your dreams, featuring a fluffy and tender biscuit topping (with none of that squidgy, under-baked layer of dough underneath) and a silky bed of lightly sweetened peaches that’s neither gloopy nor watery. We’re so excited to preview more recipes from the new book, which comes out November 8th, and don’t forget you can preorder it here : https://geni.us/WjcIbfp
