Ingredients

  • Peach Filling
  • 6 cups fresh peaches peeled and sliced (about 7–8 medium peaches)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small cubes
  • Cobbler Topping
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss until evenly coated. Transfer the peach mixture to the prepared baking dish and dot with the butter cubes.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Spoon the batter evenly over the peach filling. It doesn't need to completely cover the peaches.
  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
  • Let the cobbler cool for 10–15 minutes before serving so the filling thickens.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Use ripe peaches for the sweetest flavor.
  • Frozen peaches can be used; thaw and drain before baking.
  • If using canned peaches, drain well and reduce the sugar slightly.
  • Do not overmix the batter or the topping may become dense.
  • The cobbler thickens as it cools.
