Classic Peach Cobbler

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the Peach Filling:
    In a large bowl, combine peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using). Toss gently and pour into the prepared baking dish.
  3. Make the Topping:
    In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and melted butter until just combined.
  4. Assemble the Cobbler:
    Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the peaches. It’s okay if some peach filling is peeking through—this creates a rustic, bubbly top. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on top if desired.
  5. Bake:
    Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Serve:
    Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate treat.

Tips for the Perfect Peach Cobbler:

  • Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor.
  • Canned peaches work too, just drain well.
  • Don’t overmix the topping—keep it slightly lumpy for a tender, cobblestone-like crust.

If you want, I can also give you a quicker one-bowl version that’s just as delicious and easier to make on a busy day.

Do you want me to share that version too?
