Instructions

1-Preheat oven: Heat oven to 350°F (175°C) and let it fully preheat.

2-Prepare peach filling: Toss sliced peaches with brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and cornstarch (if extra juicy).

3-Make batter: Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; stir in milk and melted butter just until combined—don’t overmix.

4-Assemble cobbler (do not stir): Pour batter into greased baking dish, then spoon peach mixture evenly over the top without stirring.

5-Add optional crunch: Sprinkle a light layer of brown sugar over the top for a caramelized crust.

6-Bake: Bake for about 45 minutes until the top is golden brown and fruit bubbles around the edges.

7-Let rest: Let the cobbler sit for at least 15 minutes after baking so the juices set.

8-Serve warm: Scoop into bowls and top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

🍑 Drain canned peaches thoroughly and reduce sugar in the filling since canned fruit is already sweetened.
🔥 Score fresh peaches with an X on the bottom, blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to an ice bath for easy peeling.
⏰ Resist cutting into the cobbler too soon; the 15-minute resting time prevents runny filling and gives you that perfect spoonable consistency.
