Peach Cobbler Supreme

easy peach cobbler
Inspired by the movie "Madea's Family Reunion" (2006)

Georgia is the land of delicious peaches and the home of Tyler Perry's Madea. A pistol packin', cigarette smokin', kick your ***, and take no **** kind of woman. Madea goes on the school bus to confront a bully who is terrorizing a young girl she is guardian to. Well, the boy "should have asked somebody" because he made the huge mistake of talking "smack" to Madea. Long story short, he won't make that mistake again.

This recipe for Peach Cobbler Supreme is a dessert right out of the old south, but with a modern flare. Georgia is the home to Madea, our favorite southern bell (and hell raiser) and to delicious peaches. They have come together to bring you a dish you absolutely must taste. Madea’s Family Reunion and Peach Cobbler Supreme are family.


3 cans (15 1.4oz) sliced to peaches in heavy syrup, drained
1/3 stick of butter
1/3 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup Dekuyper Original Peachtree Schnapps (a peach flavored liqueur)
1/3 teaspoon cinnamon
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla
2 Tablespoons corn starch
1/3 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
Dash of nutmeg
1 package Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Crust (2 crusts)

Egg Wash:
1 egg yolk
5 drops of water


Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients except pie crust and egg yolk. Cook over high heat until peach mixture boils (this will burn off any alcohol content from the liqueur). Reduce heat and simmer about 2 minutes.

Spoon peach mixture into a 9 X 9 inch glass baking dish.

Unfold one crust and lay over mixture. Lay the other pie crust on a lightly floured surface and use your favorite cookie cutter to press out the entire crust (I use a star shaped cookie cutter). Lay the shapes over the top crust. Using a wire whisk, beat the egg wash about a minute. Brush over crusts with a pastry brush.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.

Optional - Serve with vanilla ice cream or a light whipped topping.
