Peach Cobbler

Did you ever have to stay in camp
and cook your specialty dish while everyone
else got to ride? Well, here's the solution. You can
do this in 10 minutes.
Ingredients 6 to 10 refrigerated pie crusts 1 gallon
of sliced peaches, drained and save the syrup. brown sugar cinnamon
butter or margarine And if you like, dried prunes, raisins or dried
apricots.
Grease your Dutch oven and add a pie crust or two.
Put in a layer of sliced peaches then sprinkle with brown sugar and
cinnamon and add plenty of butter. Add another pie crust and repeat
until you are out of peaches and pie crusts. You can add the dried
fruit to the peaches if you like. Add the last pie crust and save
some of the crust and fashion your brand to put on the top of the crust
and it will brown darker than the other crust. Takes about 3 hours
and not much fire under the oven. Pour the rest of the syrup you
saved over the dried fruit and keep it by the fire and boil it to reduce
it and save until morning and you will have some mighty fine syrup to
add to your hot cakes. If it ain't enough, just add more water
and brown sugar and boil it a little more and it'll do. Don't show
anybody the packages the pie crusts came in and they'll think you made
it yourself. I served this in 2, 18" Dutch ovens to my high school
class at our 40th reunion and they ate every bite of it. They
even thought I could cook. Lee, I swear this works and it is good.
Use it if you like. David
