I don't know why I have ignored nectarines and peaches for quite a long time I was more worried about kiwis I think .I always looked up for recipes to salvage the over ripe one sitting on the counter.My girl being a fruit hater,never really bothered about anything but her bag of chips.ya... tusker likes fruits but he religiously sticks to his regular apple ,orange, banana routine.I don't mind any fruit as long as it is served to me washed cleaned and ready to eat .. oh ya ..did I say peeled too..:))
The other day these beautiful nectarines caught my attention,the peel looked more of a water color painting than a real fruit .So much similar to brush stokes ,I definitely spent some time admiring the shades and highlights.
Now I must admit I am yet to develop a liking for the cobbler where the whole thing is runny inside.Though I like to see the glossy goodness flowing from the cobbler something in my mind tells me it is not done ,but I was so carried away by the ease of just throwing in all the stuff and not mix it ...now how cool is that when u don't have to slog.So I decided to go for the Easy peach cobbler from MyRecipes.com and bake till done like any other cake.The success of this recipe tells me I must make more of it..

- Can be served with other fresh fruits too...
Note
The sides may look slight burnt but does not affect the cake.The cake tends to pull from the sides too.
Do not mix butter ,batter and fruit mix .They come out all mixed well..Even if it is one small step (of beating the egg) reduced I am happy ...do u feel the same?
