Kick things off by preheating your oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C). This ensures that it's ready to work its magic on your delectable cobbler creation.

Take your trusty 1-quart baking dish and give it a good greasing. This step ensures that your cobbler won't stick to the sides as it bakes, making for easy serving later on.

In a mixing bowl, toss together your perfectly skinned and chopped peaches with a generous sprinkle of sugar, a dash of your favorite warming spice (cinnamon or nutmeg), and a handful of crunchy nuts. Mix until everything is evenly coated and ready for the spotlight.

Pour your delectable peach mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly to cover the bottom. This layer will be the star of your cobbler show, so make sure it's spread out nice and evenly.

In another mixing bowl, combine your Jiffy baking mix, melted shortening, milk, and egg. Stir until everything is well combined and you have a smooth, velvety batter ready to go.

Take spoonfuls of your batter and drop them onto the peach mixture in the baking dish. You don't need to completely cover the fruit—just scatter spoonfuls evenly across the top.

Pop your baking dish into the preheated oven and let the magic happen. Bake your cobbler for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce the heat to 350°F (180°C) and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Your cobbler is ready when the fruit is tender and the topping is a beautiful golden brown.

Once your cobbler is baked to perfection, take it out of the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve it up warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top, and savor every delicious bite of your homemade Jiffy Mix Peach Cobbler creation!
