🍑 Classic Peach Cobbler
A warm, sweet, and comforting dessert with juicy peaches and a golden, biscuit-like topping — perfect for summer or cozy evenings.
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 6–8)
Filling:
- 4 cups fresh or canned peaches, sliced (drain if canned)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (adjust based on sweetness of peaches)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (to thicken)
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup (½ stick) butter, melted
- Optional: cinnamon sugar for sprinkling
🥣 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish lightly with butter.
2️⃣ Prepare Peach Filling
- In a bowl, combine peaches, sugar, flour, lemon juice, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Pour filling into the prepared baking dish.
3️⃣ Make the Topping
- In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in milk and melted butter until smooth.
4️⃣ Assemble Cobbler
- Spoon the batter over the peaches; it doesn’t need to completely cover them — the topping will spread as it bakes.
- Optional: sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top for extra flavor.
5️⃣ Bake
- Bake 35–40 minutes, until topping is golden brown and peaches are bubbly.
6️⃣ Serve
- Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
🔥 Tips & Variations
- Juicier Filling: Add a tablespoon of peach jam or a splash of orange juice.
- Extra Flavor: Mix in a pinch of nutmeg or ginger with the peaches.
- Biscuit Topping: Use self-rising flour and slightly thicker dollops for a more cake-like topping.
- Make-Ahead: Assemble and refrigerate up to 4 hours before baking.
