A classic Southern peach cobbler with a golden buttery crust and syrupy spiced peach filling, perfect for summer and comforting any time of year.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches (about 900g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200g), or half granulated and half brown sugar for deeper flavor
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (125g), sifted
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk (240ml), or 2% milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (115g), melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Peel and slice peaches into even, bite-sized pieces. Toss with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl until coated.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Melt butter gently without browning.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining sugar. Add milk and whisk until smooth with a few lumps.
  4. Pour melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish. Pour batter evenly over the butter without stirring.
  5. Spoon peach mixture evenly over the batter without mixing or pressing.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbling. A toothpick inserted into the crust should come out clean.
  7. Let cobbler rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to thicken juices and settle crust.

Notes

[‘Use fresh peaches for best flavor; frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained.’, ‘Do not overmix batter to avoid tough crust; a few lumps are fine.’, ‘Pour melted butter into baking dish before batter for crispy crust.’, ‘Let cobbler rest 10-15 minutes after baking for best texture.’, ‘Lemon juice brightens peaches and balances sweetness.’, ‘Variations include adding mixed berries, pecans, or using gluten-free flour and dairy substitutes.’]
