Ingredients

Scale

For the Peach Filling:

  • 5 fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced (about 4 cups or 600-700g)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the Batter:

  • 6 tablespoons butter (85g)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (120g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup milk (180ml)
  • Ground cinnamon, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peach Filling: In a saucepan, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, and salt. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes until the sugar dissolves and the peaches release their juices. Remove from heat and set aside. *(If using canned peaches, skip this step and drain the peaches before proceeding.)
  2. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the butter into pieces and place them in a 9×13-inch glass baking dish. Put the dish in the oven while it preheats to allow the butter to melt. Once melted, remove the dish from the oven.
  3. Make the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk until just combined. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish.
  4. Assemble the Cobbler: Spoon the cooked peaches and their juices over the batter. Sprinkle generously with ground cinnamon.
  5. Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 38-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  6. Serve: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

Tips & Variations:

  • Canned Peaches: Substitute fresh peaches with 1 quart of canned peaches (undrained). Skip cooking the filling and proceed to assemble the cobbler.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free flour blends like Cup4Cup or King Arthur Measure for Measure for a gluten-free version.
  • Peach Prep: To easily peel peaches, blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to an ice bath. The skins will slip off effortlessly.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
  • Serving Suggestion: Top with whipped cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
