National Peach Cobbler Day, In the News, and Enjoy

National Peach Cobbler Day - Today is National Peach Cobbler Day!

A cobbler is a deep-dish fruit pie covered with a thick crust made from biscuit dough.

This delicious dessert originated in the American West during the 19th century.

Although for many years people did not consider cobbler fashionable enough to serve to guests, it has now earned a permanent place in the pantheon of American desserts.

The world’s largest peach cobbler was 11 x 5 feet across and 8 inches deep. It appeared at the the Georgia Peach Festival in 2007 and contained 90 pounds of butter, 150 pounds of sugar, 150 pounds of flour, 32 gallons of milk, and 75 gallons of peaches!

    Melba toast and Peach Melba are indeed related.

    The dessert was created to celebrate famous and rather slender opera singer, Nellie Melba in 1892.

    It is said when she gained weight in her later career the same chef created a thin baked toast for her diet—Melba Toast.

    Other versions of this dessert use pears, apricots, or strawberries instead of peaches and use raspberry sauce or melted red currant jelly instead of raspberry purée.
