Fresh Raspberry Peach Cobbler

This Fresh Raspberry Peach Cobbler is the perfect summer food! Peaches and raspberries seasoned with cinnamon, sugar and nutmeg are covered in a simple batter and baked. Then it's topped with vanilla ice cream to make it even more delicious. Yum!

I have spent the last four 4th of July's in Germany celebrating with the Americans here on the military base.  This year, I decided to invite my ex-pat friend and his fiance who is German along with his daughter who is also German to our home to experience a traditional Independence Day celebration!

We served bbq chicken, brats, hot dogs with all the trimmings, taco dip, veggie tray, broccoli salad, baked beans and all kinds of American soda, chips and munchies!  For dessert, I wanted to make something traditionally American and in season, but something that would be easy to whip up the day before the party.I decided on this Fresh Raspberry Peach Cobbler! My German friends went crazy over it!  I mean really, you can't go wrong with fresh berries baked with sugar and spices can you?

This cobbler starts with melted butter in the bottom of the pan.  Strange, yes?  But effective... absolutely!  On top of the butter the batter is poured evenly, but without mixing it all together. Finally the fresh peaches, sliced with or without the skins, and fresh raspberries are spooned over the top of everything.  Again, yes it's strange but it the end the batter bakes up into the berries and you're left with this amazing cobbler!

I paired the Fresh Raspberry Peach Cobbler with a dollop of vanilla bean ice cream.  The creaminess of the ice cream with the sweet tartness of the fruit is a delightful combination!

So simple.  So delicious.  So perfect for an Independence Day celebration!

Happy Baking!
