Old Fashioned Peach Cobbler
A comforting classic dessert with a golden, tender topping and warmly spiced peach flavor. It is easy to serve and always welcomed at family gatherings.
Equipment
- 9x13-inch baking dish
Ingredients
For the Filling
- 6 cups Fresh Peaches, peeled and sliced (or two 29 oz cans, drained)
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Batter
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1 cup Whole Milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). Place the butter in a 9x13 inch baking dish and put it in the oven while it preheats so the butter melts. Remove once fully melted.
- In a bowl, toss the peach slices with the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Set aside and let the flavors come together.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the milk and whisk until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
- Pour the batter directly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir them together.
- Spoon the seasoned peaches evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir. The batter will rise up and around the fruit as it bakes, creating the classic cobbler texture.
- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the top is deep golden brown and the batter has puffed up around the peaches. A toothpick inserted into the batter portion should come out clean.
- Let the cobbler cool for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. It is best served warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream.
