[NOCK NOCK]

My fav fruit. They looked so cool I had to snap a pic.
Anyone have a good cobbler recipe?

Are the fruit stands in eastern WA selling them yet?

Drove to Mt. Vernon yesterday to pick frost peaches from a friends tree. That sucker was loaded and they were huge! I'm surprised they turned out so well this year considering how wet and cold it's been half this summer. We'll be canning ours.

One of the people who came to our party Saturday brought cubed and skinned white peaches with homemade mozzarella with a balsamic vinaigrette. It was very good.

I just made a cobbler it was awesome.  Lightly grease a 9x13 baking pan.  Blanche, peel, pit and dice 8 lbs peaches, add 1c brown sugar (cinnamon optional, I don't).  Layer in baking pan.  Combine 2c rolled oats, 1c brown sugar and 1/2c softened butter and mix until all oats are buttered.  Add to top of peaches and lightly spread, leave surface coarse and uneven.  Bake at 375 for 45 minutes.  This is sweet but not super sweet, goes well with vanilla ice cream, cool whip etc.

We had an amazing fruit set on all our peaches, had to thin very heavily.  The Red Haven is done, approx 80 lbs harvested.  Next up will be the Elegant Lady peach in mid-August, and ending with the JD Hale Peach in September.  In the dry east side areas, the only thing easier to grow at home than peaches are apricots (we have one also).

Those look amazing! I'm dying for my in-laws peach tree to ripen up!

I have one scraggly peach tree that for the first time actually has 4 or 5 peaches on it. They're starting to turn orange but they're still very firm. I might have to bring them inside today or tomorrow to keep them from getting eaten by the birds.

Thanks for the recipe Doublelung, will be doing that very soon.

I have managed to get 2 peach trees growing from seed this year, google tells you that its very hard to accomplish. I cold stratified and then planted about 50 seeds...only the 2 grew and are surviving so far. As a back up plan, I ordered a couple trees that will be ready for pickup next spring.

Nice!  I've bought all my yard trees as grafted stock from either Van Well or C&O (we had 9 fruit trees at our previous residence).  I have recently started rooting rose cuttings for my wife.

We just picked up a 25 lb box at Thorp off of I90 for $9.95.

My favorite recipe is for the dutch oven but works in the regular oven.  10 in oven.  5 lbs peaches sliced and lightly sprinkled with sugar left overnight in fridge.  Next day (or two) arrange peaches in the bottom, evenly add a dry white or yellow cake mix, pour a coke or pepsi (not diet)over the top.  You can add cinnamon but I like a little nutmeg sprinkled on top.  Cook for 45 minutes.  Same recipe we used in scouts 45 years ago.

He would have claimed he had a patent on it and you couldn't use it anyway.
