🍑 Ingredients
For the Peach Filling:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Fresh peaches (peeled, sliced) | 6 cups |
| Granulated sugar | ¾ cup |
| Lemon juice | 1 tsp |
| Ground cinnamon | ½ tsp |
| Ground nutmeg | ¼ tsp |
For the Batter:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| All-purpose flour | 1 cup |
| Granulated sugar | 1 cup |
| Baking powder | 1 Tbsp |
| Salt | ¼ tsp |
| Milk | 1 cup |
| Unsalted butter (melted) | ½ cup |
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Start by setting your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Prepare the Peach Filling
In a large bowl, combine the peach slices, ¾ cup of sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well to evenly coat the fruit. Set the bowl aside while you prepare the batter.
Step 3: Mix the Dry Batter Ingredients
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt until well blended.
Step 4: Add Wet Ingredients
Pour in the milk, stirring just until smooth. Then, add the melted butter and stir until the batter comes together without lumps.
Step 5: Assemble the Cobbler
Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Spoon the peach mixture on top, distributing it evenly. Do not mix—the batter will rise around the fruit as it bakes.
Step 6: Bake
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are bubbling.
Step 7: Let It Rest & Serve
Allow the cobbler to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, ideally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
