Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, water, and ground cinnamon. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Using a pastry cutter or clean fingers, cut the cubed, cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently stir in the whole milk and vanilla extract until just combined, forming a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Dollop the batter over the peaches by spoonfuls, leaving a few gaps to allow the peaches to peek through during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
