Ingredients
Scale
For the peaches:
- 4 cups fresh peach slices, peeled
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- Pinch of salt
For the dough:
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk
For topping:
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven and prepare dish: Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook peaches: In a medium saucepan, combine the peeled peach slices, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until the sugars dissolve and the peaches are juicy and warm.
- Melt butter: Pour the melted butter into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Do not stir.
- Prepare batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk until smooth. Pour the batter gently over the melted butter in the baking dish, without stirring.
- Add peaches: Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter, including some of the juices to add moisture and flavor.
- Sprinkle topping: Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon for the topping, then sprinkle evenly over the peaches.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 38–42 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
- Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly, then serve warm. It pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor and sweetness.
- If fresh peaches are unavailable, frozen thawed peaches can be used as a substitute.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk and butter with plant-based alternatives.
- Adjust baking time slightly if using a smaller or deeper dish to avoid undercooking or burning.
- Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
