A warm, cozy peach cobbler with a subtle bourbon twist, topped with creamy vanilla ice cream. This easy recipe combines sweet peaches and a flaky crust for a comforting dessert perfect for summer or fall.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 large ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons bourbon
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with granulated sugar, bourbon, and cinnamon (if using). Let sit for about 10 minutes to release juices and meld flavors.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, brown sugar, and salt. Add cold cubed butter and cut into the mixture with a pastry cutter or fork until coarse crumbs form.
  4. Stir in milk and vanilla extract gently until dough just comes together; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the peach mixture with juices into an 8×8-inch oven-safe baking dish. Spoon the topping evenly over the peaches, leaving gaps for bubbling fruit.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden brown and peach juices bubble around edges. Cover loosely with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  7. Let cobbler rest for 10 minutes to thicken filling.
  8. Serve warm with a generous scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Keep butter cold to ensure a flaky crust. Let peaches macerate with sugar and bourbon for at least 10 minutes for best flavor. If topping browns too fast, cover with foil halfway through baking. For a crisper crust, broil 1-2 minutes at the end, watching carefully. Can prepare topping and filling ahead and refrigerate up to 6 hours before baking, adding a few extra minutes to bake time if chilled.
