Nothing says comfort like a classic peach cobbler—sweet, juicy peaches with a golden, buttery topping. This one is simple and absolutely perfect.
🍑 Old-Fashioned Peach Cobbler
Ingredients (serves 6–8):
Peach filling
- 6–8 fresh peaches, peeled & sliced
(or 4 cups frozen or canned—drained) - ¾ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Cobbler topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, toss peaches with sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Pour melted butter into a 9×13 baking dish.
- In another bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk until smooth.
- Pour batter directly over butter—do not stir.
- Spoon peaches evenly over the batter—again, do not stir.
- Bake 40–45 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool 10–15 minutes before serving.
🔥 Pro Tips
- Sprinkle coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar on top before baking for a crackly crust.
- Add a splash of bourbon or rum to the peaches for next-level flavor.
- Best served warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.
