How to Make Southern Bourbon Fresh Peach Cobbler

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine 6 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup bourbon (or apple juice for vegan option), 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Gently toss to coat.
Pour peach mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter (or vegan margarine) cut into cubes, and 1/2 cup buttermilk (or water/apple juice).
Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in 1/4 cup bourbon (or apple juice).
Spoon the crumble topping evenly over the peach filling.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Let cool slightly before serving. Top with a scoop of your favorite ice cream (vanilla or tofutti recommended).
