Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups (peeled and sliced) fresh peaches
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup (melted) unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, 0.5 cup of granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Mix well and set aside to let the peaches release their juices.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, 0.5 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the melted butter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Pour the batter on top of the butter, spreading it evenly (do not stir).
Spoon the peach mixture, along with its juices, evenly over the batter. Do not stir; the batter will rise around the fruit while baking.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Let the cobbler cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
