Cajun French: la peche (la pesh) – peach
The fridge is still over stocked with beer and we are having fun cooking with the beer. Having some fruit that needed eating, we decided to make cobbler. We usually use premade pie crust for our cobbler and finding none the imagination kicked in. Sweet Potato Biscuits, why not use the batter for the cobbler topping? And why not use beer for the liquid? Why not for sure; it is fantastic!
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups Bruce’s Sweet Potato Pancake Mix
- ¾ cup Abita Amber Beer

Coarsely chop banana and peaches. Place blueberries, chopped banana, and chopped peaches in bowl. Pour in pineapple juice and applesauce, mix well. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine pancake mix, beer, olive oil and salt. Mix well.
Pour fruit in a medium sized cast iron skillet. Sprinkle raw brown sugar on top of fruit. Spread batter on top of fruit and sugar.

Abita is my favorite beer! We have a six pack in the fridge right now and yes, I live in NM. Thank goodness I can get it here. As for the cobbler – never thought of using beer as the batter liquid. However, I can see that with Abita. Will definitely have to try it!
Thanks for the comment. Glad you are able to get Abita in NM. Let me know how you like the cobbler.
