Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and slice them into thin wedges. Place the peach slices in a large mixing bowl.
Add 0.5 cup of granulated sugar, the brown sugar, and lemon juice to the peaches. Toss gently to coat, then set aside to allow the peaches to release their juices.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 0.5 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Melt the butter and pour it into a 9-inch x 13-inch baking dish, evenly coating the bottom.
Gradually whisk the milk and vanilla extract into the flour mixture until you create a smooth batter.
Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
Spoon the peaches and their juices across the top of the batter. Again, do not stir; the batter will rise around the fruit as it bakes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the crust comes out clean.
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
