Description
This easy peach cobbler recipe achieves the perfect balance of jammy, baked fruit and a buttery, crisp topping. By combining fresh, thinly sliced peaches with a simple, leavened batter, this dessert creates a textured, golden, and sugared surface that satisfies every time. It is a classic American Southern comfort food that is delicious served warm with a scoop of ice cream or cold the next day.
Ingredients
6 cups fresh peaches, thinly sliced (or frozen)
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup whole milk
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Toss the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup sugar and the cinnamon in a large bowl.
Place the fruit mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, ensuring an even spread.
In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, flour, and baking powder until combined.
Stir the milk into the dry ingredients to create a smooth, pourable batter.
Drizzle the melted butter over the peaches in the baking dish.
Pour the batter evenly over the peaches.
Bake for 45 minutes until the topping is a deep golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
If using frozen peaches, thaw them and drain excess liquid before tossing with sugar to prevent a soggy topping. Freestone peaches work best for maintaining texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
