Step 1: Preparing the Pastry Strips

In this first step, we’ll prepare the pastry strips that will add layers of flakiness to our Triple Crust Peach Cobbler.

1. Heat your oven to 350°F.
2. Stir together 1 package of Betty Crocker™ pie crust mix and 1/3 cup of cold water until the mixture forms a ball.
3. Flatten the dough into a rectangle, approximately 11×8 inches in size.
4. Cut the dough into 4 strips, each measuring 11×2 inches.
5. Place the strips on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake them for 18 minutes. Set them aside to cool.

Step 2: Preparing the Bottom Crust

Now, let’s create the bottom crust that will cradle the luscious peach filling.

1. Stir together 1 package of Betty Crocker™ pie crust mix and 1/3 cup of cold water until the mixture forms a ball.
2. Flatten the dough and roll it out to fit the bottom and sides of an ungreased rectangular baking dish, sized at 13x9x2 inches.
3. Place the prepared crust in the baking dish and set it aside.

Step 3: Creating the Peach Filling

The heart of our Triple Crust Peach Cobbler is the delightful peach filling. Let’s make it!

1. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of sugar, 3/4 cup of melted butter or margarine, 2 teaspoons of ground nutmeg, 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, 2 teaspoons of lemon extract, and the undrained sliced peaches from the two cans.
2. Stir this sweet concoction until all the ingredients are well mixed.
