Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups (sliced) Fresh peaches
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar (for cookie dough)
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for cookie dough)
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large pot, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Stir well to coat the peaches evenly.
Cook the peach mixture over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until the juices thicken. Remove from heat and pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar (for cookie dough) together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and the vanilla extract (for cookie dough) to the butter-sugar mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed. Add the milk and mix until the dough comes together.
Take small portions of the cookie dough and flatten them slightly with your hands. Arrange the flattened dough pieces over the peach filling, covering as much of the surface as possible.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cookie crust is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
