In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1 cup sugar, salt, cinnamon, vanilla, and lemon juice. Toss gently and let sit for 10 minutes.
Prepare topping:
In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in melted butter and milk until just combined.
Assemble:
Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
Drop spoonfuls of the topping evenly over the peaches. Don’t worry if it doesn’t cover completely—gaps are fine; it bakes beautifully.
Bake:
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
Serve:
Let cool slightly before serving. Delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
💡 Tips:
For a richer flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of bourbon to the peaches.
If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain excess liquid before assembling.
If you want, I can also give you a super quick version of this cobbler that comes together in under 30 minutes, still oven-baked and old-timey delicious. Do you want me to share that version too?
