You may remember from last week’s post, Banana Cream Pudding in a Jar, that I’m working with ALDI for their Summer Road Trip. I’m sharing all about Atlanta with you as one of the five cities they are virtually “visiting”. Last time, we talked all about the food, so today we are talking some fun activities you can do while visiting! So let’s talk about some of my favorite things to do.

Stone Mountain Park – It’s located right outside of metro Atlanta and is just as it sounds – a mountain made of stone- quartz to be exact. There are all kinds of activities that are great for families, including a skyride to the top of the mountain that gives beautiful views of the Atlanta skyline, fishing, hiking and an awesome night-time laser show that ends with fireworks. We’ve seen the show and it really is awesome and totally worth it. The park would also be a great place to take a picnic with some of your favorite ALDI foods. They have great meats and cheeses for sandwiches and they even carry Kings Hawaiian bread (one of my faves), which is great for sandwiches.

Chastain Memorial Park – This park is the largest in Atlanta. There are jogging paths, playgrounds, tennis courts, and my personal favorite – the amphitheater. The amphitheater is only open in the summer, but always has classic artists. Remember when I went to the Boyz II Men concert last summer? This is where it was. It’s a completely unique atmosphere and experience. Unlike any other amphitheater I’ve been to, you can bring in your own tables, food and coolers. Many people will even bring tablecloths and vases of flowers. It’s the perfect place to bring your favorite bottle of ALDI wine, and some ALDI cheese and crackers and enjoy a show.

Centennial Olympic Park – This park is located right in downtown Atlanta and was built for the 1996 Olympics. It’s 21 acres of greenery, and includes and the Fountain of Rings, where you’ll always find kids running around in bathing suits during the warm weather. The park is also surrounded by some of Atlanta’s biggest attractions, including the new SkyView Atlanta Ferris Wheel, the CNN building, The World of co*ke and the Georgia Aquarium. It’d be another great place for a picnic with some of your favorite ALDI products. Might I suggest these peach cobbler cupcakes for dessert before exploring the area? 🙂

And speaking of the Peach Cobbler Cupcakes, let’s talk about them a little bit. I gathered all my favorite ALDI baking products to put these together.

I used a modified version of my favorite vanilla cupcake. I reduced the milk a little to have a little bit thicker batter. I tend to think of cobbler as being a little bit of a thicker cake, plus I wanted to offset some of the moisture from the peaches and make sure they didn’t all sink to the bottom.

Once the batter is mixed, grab your peaches, cinnamon and sugar and combine them. I used canned peaches, but if peaches are in season and ALDI has them fresh, you can grab those too. Cut each of the peach slices in half so that they are a little smaller and fit better into the cupcake liners.

Put 2-3 pieces of the peaches in the bottom of the cupcake, fill the liners about 3/4 of the way with batter, then top with a little sprinkle of additional cinnamon and swirl that around with a toothpick. I absolutely love cinnamon, so I’ll always add a little extra wherever I can. Top the batter with another 2-3 pieces of peach, then pop them in the oven.

FAQs

How do you keep peach cobbler from getting soggy? ›

How do you Make Peach Cobbler Not Runny or Mushy?

Be sure to cook this cobbler fully.
Don't skip the cornstarch in the recipe.
Cornstarch doesn't activate its thickening properties until just over 200°F so you want the filling to bubble in the oven.
Underbaked cobbler won't set properly.

Why is my cobbler full of liquid after baking? ›

4. Overcrowding the topping. Completely covering the fruit filling with the cobbler topping will steam both the fruit and the bottom of the topping, making for a wet finished cobbler in the most unappealing way. Try this: Scoop the cobbler topping onto the fruit, leaving space between each portion of topping.

Why is my peach cobbler so runny? ›

Not coating the fruit in some starch.

We love cobblers for being juicy, but really ripe fruit can make more puddles than a spring rain. The result is a soupy cobbler with a soggy top. Try this: Add one to two tablespoons of cornstarch to the filling.

Why is the bottom of my peach cobbler gummy? ›

You shouldn't have a problem with Peach Cobbler being gummy if you use fresh fruit unless you overcook it. Canned peaches, however, can result in a gummy filling because the peaches are already softer to begin with and bathed in heavy syrup. Make sure to thoroughly drain the peaches before using.

How do I know when my peach cobbler is done? ›

Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and peach filling is bubbling around the edges. To test for doneness, stick a toothpick into the biscuit topping and if it comes out clean, it's done. Remove cobbler from the oven, and set the pan on a wire rack. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Why is my peach cobbler not cooking in the middle? ›

Mistake: Baking at too high of a temperature

Cobblers need enough time in the oven for the topping to cook through and brown, but at too high a temperature, anything above 375 ℉, the fruit filling might not be cooked by the time the top is burnt.

Why do you put cornstarch in a cobbler? ›

Making the Fruit Filling

You can bake a cobbler with just fruit as the filling, but a little sugar and cornstarch tossed with the fruit before baking will work together to create a lush sauce from the fruit's juices. This is the thing that turns a good cobbler into a knock-out dessert.

Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh? ›

Really? : The Salt What's more, when it comes to some nutrients, like vitamin C, canned peaches pack an even bigger punch than fresh, researchers say. The reasons have to do with how the canning process alters the fruit's cell walls. So eat 'em up!

What if I forgot baking powder in my cobbler? ›

Plain yogurt works best over other varieties because it provides the acidity needed for leavening without adding flavor. You can replace 1 teaspoon (5 grams) of baking powder in a recipe with 1/4 teaspoon (1 gram) of baking soda and 1/2 cup (122 grams) of plain yogurt.

Why did my cobbler turn out like cake? ›

If you use enough batter to completely cover the fruit, you'll end up with a cobbler that's far too bready, more like an upside-down cake.

Is cobbler dough the same as pie crust? ›

What is peach cobbler crust made of? ›

Make crust: Sift together flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Work in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Whisk together egg and cold water in a small bowl. Sprinkle over flour mixture; work with hands to form dough into a ball.

What is a buckle cobbler? ›

Though crumbles, crisps, and cobblers are more akin to pie, a buckle is a lot like cake. In fact, they look nearly identical to fruit-filled coffee cakes. As the batter rises in the oven, the weight of the fruit causes it to “buckle.”
