Classic Peach Cobbler recipe


Ingredients

  • For the peach filling:
    • 6-8 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or 4 cups canned peaches, drained)
    • ¾ cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1 tsp cinnamon
    • ½ tsp nutmeg (optional)
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
    • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • For the cobbler topping:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • ½ tsp salt
    • 1 cup milk
    • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the peach filling: In a large bowl, mix peaches, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir well and let sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. Melt butter: Pour melted butter into the baking dish, ensuring the bottom is evenly coated.
  4. Make the batter: In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add milk, stirring until smooth.
  5. Assemble the cobbler: Pour the batter over the melted butter (do not stir). Then, spoon the peach mixture evenly on top. The batter will rise while baking.
  6. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  7. Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
