Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 cups peeled and sliced peaches (fresh or canned)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a saucepan, combine the peaches and sugar. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the peaches soften slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and melt it in the preheated oven. Once melted, remove the dish from the oven.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour this batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
  5. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir.
  6. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  7. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe peaches. If they’re not in season, canned peaches work just as well. The butter creates a rich, golden crust. Ensure it’s evenly melted before adding the batter. Avoid opening the oven door while baking to prevent the cobbler from sinking. A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can enhance the flavor of the peaches.
