- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
How to Make Peach Cobbler
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup of sugar. Toss to coat and set aside to allow the juices to develop.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
- Carefully spoon the peach mixture over the batter, including the juices, without stirring.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
- Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor. If peaches are out of season, you can use frozen peaches, but thaw and drain excess liquid before using.
- For added flavor, consider sprinkling a pinch of cinnamon over the peach mixture.
- Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to help it set up a bit more.
Easy Variations
- Replace some of the peaches with other fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries for a mixed fruit cobbler.
- Add a sprinkle of nutmeg or almond extract for a different flavor profile.
- For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
What to Serve With It
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a classic pairing.
- A dollop of Greek yogurt for a tangy contrast.
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish and a refreshing touch.
