Description
A warm and gooey Southern peach cobbler featuring sweet peaches and a buttery golden crust. This comforting dessert is quick to make and perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or canned, drained)
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and pour melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a medium saucepan, combine peaches with 1/2 cup sugar and cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until juicy and sugar dissolves.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk and vanilla, stirring until just combined.
- Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish without stirring.
- Spoon the peach mixture over the batter and sprinkle with cinnamon, if using.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
- Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

For extra flavor, replace some sugar with brown sugar or add a pinch of nutmeg.
Try adding berries like blueberries or raspberries for variation.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat in microwave (30–40 sec per portion) or in oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes.
