Ingredients

For the Peach Filling

  • 8 fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced into thin wedges
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

For The Cobbler Topping

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup boiling water

For Sprinkling

  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F if using a dark or glass pan, or 425°F if using a light metal baking dish.
  2. Make the Peach Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss gently until evenly coated.
  3. Parbake the Peaches: Pour the peach mixture into a 2-quart baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes while you prepare the topping.
  4. Prepare the Topping: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, both sugars, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add boiling water and stir gently until just combined.
  5. Assemble the Cobbler: Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the warm peaches, allowing some peaches to show through.
  6. Finish and Bake: Sprinkle the cobbler with sugar. Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Serve warm with ice cream.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead Tips: Slice and sugar peaches ahead; assemble topping before baking.
  • Storage: Store covered leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat before serving.
  • Freezing Instructions: Freeze baked cobbler for up to 3 months. Thaw and reheat before serving.
  • Customization Ideas: Add berries to filling, sprinkle sugar for crunch, pair with cinnamon ice cream.
