Ingredients
For the peach filling
- 6–7 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- You can also use canned or frozen peaches.
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or cornstarch
- Pinch of salt
For the cobbler topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar for sprinkling
- A little extra cinnamon
- Vanilla ice cream for serving
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish with butter.
2. Prepare the peaches
Wash, peel, and slice the peaches.
Place the sliced peaches in a large bowl. Add:
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons flour or cornstarch
- A pinch of salt
Gently mix everything together until the peaches are evenly coated.
Tip: If your peaches are very sweet and ripe, you can reduce the sugar slightly.
3. Add the peaches to the baking dish
Pour the peach mixture into your prepared baking dish.
Spread the peaches out evenly so they form a nice layer.
4. Make the cinnamon cobbler topping
In a medium bowl, combine:
- 1 cup flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Whisk the dry ingredients together.
In another bowl, mix the melted butter, milk, and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Stir gently until everything is combined and you have a thick, smooth batter.
Don’t overmix. A few small lumps are perfectly fine.
5. Add the topping
Spoon the cobbler batter over the peaches.
Don’t worry if the batter doesn’t completely cover every peach. It will spread and rise as it bakes.
For extra cinnamon flavor, sprinkle a little cinnamon and brown sugar over the top.
6. Bake
Place the dish in the preheated oven.
Bake for approximately 40–50 minutes, or until:
- The top is golden brown.
- The topping is cooked through.
- The peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Your kitchen smells wonderfully like cinnamon and peaches!
If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover the dish with aluminum foil for the remaining baking time.
7. Let it rest
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for about 10–15 minutes.
This gives the peach filling time to thicken slightly.
8. Serve
Spoon the warm peach cobbler into bowls.
For the classic combination, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. The cold, creamy ice cream melting into the warm cinnamon peach filling is especially delicious.
🍑 Using Canned Peaches
If you don’t have fresh peaches, you can use canned peaches.
Use about 2 large cans of sliced peaches.
Drain them well before using. If the peaches are already packed in heavy syrup, reduce the sugar in the filling to prevent the cobbler from becoming too sweet.
❄️ Using Frozen Peaches
Frozen peaches work very well too.
You can thaw them first and drain excess liquid, or use them frozen. If using frozen peaches, you may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
⭐ Tips for the Best Peach Cobbler
- Use ripe peaches for the best flavor.
- Don’t skip the lemon juice—it balances the sweetness.
- Cinnamon and nutmeg give the peaches a warm, cozy flavor.
- Don’t overmix the topping, or it can become dense.
- Let the cobbler rest before serving so the filling can thicken.
- Serve it warm with vanilla ice cream for the best result.
Storage: Cover leftovers and refrigerate for up to 3–4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm the whole cobbler in a low oven.
