PEACH COBBLER W/ HOMEMADE CRUST

Ingredients
Filling:
10 ripe peaches or 2 large cans of peaches or 6 small cans of peaches  - do not drain the peaches 
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons corn starch
2 tb of vanilla flavor

1 ts of ginger
1/stick of butter- softened
1 teaspoon cinnamon 

 Dough:
2 cups flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar, to sprinkle on top of crust
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 c of shortening or 1 stick of butter . I like butter crusts better.
1/4 cups of  very cold water 


Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine the peaches, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon ginger .brown sugar,butter ,granulated sugar and corn starch. Mix together. Transfer into a pot and cook for 10 minutes then

Pour mixture into a 13-inch-by-9-inch casserole dish
Make sure your bottom crust is in place.


Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and in a large bowl and mix. Cut in the butter or crisco with a fork until the dough resembles sand. Slowly add the cold water until the dough comes together. You may not need all of the water. The dough should be sticky and not dry 
double the recipe to make a crust for the bottom


Place the dough on a floured surface and knead it into a 13-inch-by-9-inch rectangle about 1/2-inch thick and place over the peach filling. ,sprinkle sugar on top of dough and bake til golden brown, about 40 minutes.
If you are using ripe peaches do not cook them.
