This delightful recipe combines the sweetness of peaches with the rich flavor of a classic pound cake. The cobbler topping adds a delightful crunch and a hint of cinnamon.

Ingredients:

For the Pound Cake:

  • 2 sticks (226 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups (280 grams) granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Cobbler Topping:

  • 1 cup (130 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (118 ml) milk
  • 2 tablespoons (30 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

For the Peach Filling:

  • 4 cups (800 grams) fresh or frozen peaches, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. Make the pound cake: In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.  
  3. Prepare the peach filling: In a bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir until well combined.
  4. Make the cobbler topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk and melted butter until just combined.
  5. Assemble the cobbler: Spoon the peach filling evenly over the pound cake batter. Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping over the peach mixture. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  6. Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and serve: Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
