Ingredients

Butter

  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter (100g)

Peaches

  • 6 large yellow peaches, ripe (about 900g)

Sugars

  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar (55g)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (120g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup milk (180mL)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Melt Butter: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the butter into several pats and place them in a 9×13 inch baking dish. Put the dish in the oven until the butter is fully melted. Remove and set aside, leaving the butter melted in the dish.
  2. Prepare Peaches: Peel the peaches carefully, then halve, pit, and slice them into roughly ¼ inch thick pieces. Transfer the sliced peaches to a large skillet for cooking.
  3. Sugar the Peaches: Sprinkle the brown sugar and ¼ cup granulated sugar over the peach slices. Stir gently to coat, then place the skillet over medium heat. Stir occasionally and cook just a few minutes until the sugars dissolve and the peaches soften slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Make the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in the milk and mix until just combined, forming a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the cobbler tender.
  5. Assemble the Cobbler – Batter Layer: Pour the batter into the baking dish with the melted butter. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly toward the edges, but do not stir or mix it with the butter.
  6. Add Peaches: Spoon the cooked peaches and any released juices over the batter, spreading evenly. Leave some small gaps to allow the batter to rise through during baking.
  7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and springs back lightly when pressed. The peaches should be bubbling underneath the crust.

Notes

  • Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor and texture.
  • Peeling peaches can be easier if they are briefly blanched in boiling water and then plunged into ice water.
  • You can substitute half-and-half for milk for a richer batter.
  • Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to let the juices thicken.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a classic dessert experience.
