Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh or frozen peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup granulated sugar, for the peach filling
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar, for the batter
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- Butter or cooking spray, for greasing the baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- Add the sliced peaches, 1 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a large mixing bowl. Stir until the peaches are evenly coated, then set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the milk just until the batter comes together. Do not overmix.
- Pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish and tilt the dish gently to coat the bottom.
- Pour the batter over the melted butter, but do not stir.
- Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter, but do not stir.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
- Let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving warm.
Notes
- Use fresh ripe peaches for the best flavor, or thaw and drain frozen peaches before using.
- Do not stir the layers together after adding the batter and peaches to the baking dish.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of heavy cream.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
