What Size Cast Iron Do You Use ?
For this, I’m sure it was a 12 inch cast iron.
Best Peach cobbler I’ve Had fasho!
What if you don’t have a food processor to make the crust?
You can use a hand or stand mixer. Or you could even use a whisk with some elbow grease lol
Hi Chef D. I came from YT looking for the recipe. It seems you cut the amount of crust in half in your recent video. Is the amount of filling the same as in this recipe? Thanks, and your food looks so delicious!
Hey Maya! Thanks for catching that, I was suppose to correct that. But crust ingredients should be 1 Cup Sugar, 1 Cup Flour, 4Tbsp Vanilla Extract, 1 Egg & 1 Cup Butter. All other ingredients are correct.
