Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Peach Filling
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them. If using canned peaches, drain them well.
- In a large bowl, mix the peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Stir in the cornstarch to help thicken the filling.
Step 2: Make the Cobbler Topping
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the milk and melted butter, stirring until the batter is smooth.
Step 3: Assemble the Cobbler
- Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly.
- Pour the cobbler topping over the peach filling, ensuring it covers most of the surface. Don’t worry if it looks uneven; it will spread out as it bakes.
Step 4: Bake the Cobbler
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
- Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Peach cobbler is best served warm, paired with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. The creamy texture of the ice cream complements the sweet and spiced peaches, making every bite heavenly.
Tips for the Perfect Peach Cobbler
- Fresh Peaches are Best: When in season, fresh peaches bring a natural sweetness and vibrant flavor that can’t be beaten.
- Don’t Skip the Spices: Cinnamon and nutmeg add depth to the peach filling, enhancing the dessert’s overall taste.
- Make it Your Own: Experiment with other fruits like blackberries, blueberries, or cherries for a fun twist.
- Reheat for Perfection: To enjoy leftovers, reheat a portion in the oven for a crisp topping or in the microwave for convenience.
