Cobbler cu piersici si levantica

Toamna incepe sa-si intre in drepturi, desi inca e august. Vremea a fost atat de urata ultimele zile incat sincer nici de gatit nu prea am avut chef. Prea ne-a trecut de la canicula la frig, extreme care nu sunt placute nicicum.. dar atunci cand soarele lipseste cu prisosinta zile la rand, intru intr-o usoara stare de melancolie. Tot ce-mi doresc acum e putin soare, putina caldura, nu sunt pregatita sa trec la haine de toamna si nici sa fac fata zilelor lungi si ploioase de toamna. Asa ca eu tin cu dintii de vara pe cat posibil si incerc sa alung melancolia toamnei cu un desert aromat, varatic, intens – cobbler cu piersici si levantica.

Acest cobbler cu piersici si levantica e frate bun cu crumble, cu diferenta cu acesta din urma are un topping mult mai crocant. Ambele sunt extrem de simplu de facut si totul tine de preferinta voastra – daca vreti un topping cu textura de blat de tort, cobbler e perfect, daca va doriti ceva crocant, faceti crumble. Cat despre umplutura, e aceeasi la ambele si puteti practic folosi orice fructe, in orice combinatie va doriti.

ENGLISH

Summer seems to be living its last days here in Romania. From 32C to 15C is a huge temperature drop during the day, although I hope we will get to see the sun a bit more before fall gets comfy over here. This weather, although perfect for baking, is somehow depressing, especially when you expect it to be warm and sunny, like the perfect August ever. But here’s me trying to cheer myself up with what else than a dessert. And not just any dessert, but one that says „summer” all the way. Beautiful, ripe peaches and vibrant lavender are the two main flavors of this peach lavender cobbler – how delicious does that sound?!

From where I sit, cobbler seems to be the sibling of crumble. It’s fluffy and soft, it’s rich and just as easy as crumble. To be honest, I’m not sure which one I prefer. Crumble is probably easier and straight forward, whilst cobbler feels a bit like an upside down muffin. Crumble is crispier, cobbler is like a cake with a juicy fruit filling. The cakey topping is versatile and matches perfectly any juicy fruit you can think of, from peaches to pears, apples, pumpkin or berries.
