Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large (about 6 cups sliced) fresh peaches
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel, pit, and slice the fresh peaches to get about 6 cups of sliced fruit. Place the peach slices in a mixing bowl.
Add 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, the brown sugar, and the lemon juice to the peaches. Toss everything together until the peaches are well coated, then set aside to macerate.
In a 9x13-inch baking dish, add the stick of butter. Place the dish in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the butter is completely melted. Remove the dish from the oven carefully.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk and vanilla extract, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir; the batter will swirl and spread on its own as it bakes.
Spoon the macerated peaches and their juices evenly on top of the batter. Again, do not stir. Sprinkle the top with ground cinnamon for flavor.
Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the cobbler cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the perfect ending to your meal.
