Ingredients

Scale

Peach Filling

  • 2 cups fresh peeled and sliced peaches (about 2 medium peaches)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Batter

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Optional

  • Vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cobbler bakes evenly and develops a beautiful golden crust.
  2. Prepare the Peach Filling: In a medium bowl, toss the sliced peaches with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Let this mixture rest for about 10 minutes to help the flavors meld and juices release.
  3. Make the Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir in the milk and melted butter until the batter is mostly smooth. Avoid over-mixing, as a few lumps will keep the cobbler tender.
  4. Assemble Your Cobbler: Pour the batter into a small baking dish approximately 6 inches square. Do not spread it out evenly; allow it to flow naturally. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter without stirring, so the fruit juices seep into the batter as it bakes.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes until the top turns golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges, indicating the filling is cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly after baking. Serve warm, ideally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra creamy, indulgent finish.

Notes

  • Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor and texture.
  • Peeling peaches is optional but recommended for a smoother filling.
  • You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk to make it dairy-free.
  • For a gluten-free version, replace all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently.
