Homemade Peach Cobbler Recipe
Juicy peaches topped with a sweet biscuit topping and baked until golden brown – serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream for a taste of summer.
Ingredients
- 4 cups sliced fresh peaches (about 6-8 medium peaches)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Peaches: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 1 cup of sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Stir well to coat the peaches evenly, then set aside.
- Melt the Butter: Place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and melt it in the preheated oven. Once melted, remove the dish from the oven and set aside.
- Make the Batter: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk and stir until smooth.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish, but do not stir. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
- Serve: Allow the peach cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
Notes
- You can use either fresh or canned peaches for this recipe. If using canned peaches, make sure to drain them before adding to the mixture.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste preference and the sweetness of the peaches.
- Leftover peach cobbler can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
