A classic dish that evokes nostalgia and warmth in every bite. Bursting with juicy, fresh peaches and enveloped in a buttery biscuit topping, this cobbler is a staple in Southern households.
Ingredients
Scale:
6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 6-8 medium peaches)
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Peach Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced fresh peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Let this mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes.
Prepare the Cobbler Crust: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the peach filling into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spoon the cobbler crust batter evenly over the top of the peach mixture.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
