Here’s a classic Peach Cobbler Pie—sweet, juicy peaches with a golden, buttery crust 🍑🥧
🍑 Peach Cobbler Pie (Serves 6–8)
Ingredients
Filling
- 5–6 cups fresh or canned peaches, peeled and sliced
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (for thickening)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping (Cobbler Crust)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup milk (add more if needed)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
2️⃣ Prepare Filling
- In a bowl, mix peaches, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and vanilla.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared dish.
3️⃣ Make Cobbler Topping
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add milk gradually until dough holds together but is slightly sticky.
4️⃣ Assemble
- Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the peach filling.
- Leave some gaps so steam can escape and the filling bubbles up.
5️⃣ Bake
- Bake 35–45 minutes until topping is golden and filling is bubbly.
- Optional: broil for 1–2 min at the end for extra golden topping.
6️⃣ Serve
- Let cool 10 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
🔄 Variations
- Oat topping: Add ¼ cup oats to the topping for texture.
- Spicy kick: Add ¼ tsp ground ginger or cardamom.
- Mixed fruit: Combine peaches with berries or plums.
- Gluten-free: Use almond flour or a gluten-free flour blend.
💡 Tips
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for best flavor; canned peaches work well too.
- Thickening the filling with a little flour ensures it isn’t too runny.
- The topping doesn’t need to cover completely—leaving gaps gives a rustic look and helps baking evenly.
If you want, I can also give you a super quick peach cobbler that doesn’t require rolling dough or chopping fruit—it’s done in under 30 minutes.
