Ingredients:
For the peach filling:
6–7 fresh ripe peaches (or 2 cans, drained), peeled and sliced
¾ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
For the cobbler topping:
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
¼ cup boiling water
Optional topping (for extra golden crust):
2 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
To serve:
Vanilla ice cream 🍨 (don’t skip it—it’s magic on warm cobbler!)
Instructions:
- Prep the peaches:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches with sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
Stir until the peaches are well coated and the mixture is glossy and slightly thickened.
Pour the peach filling into a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
- Make the cobbler topping:
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add cold butter cubes and cut them into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour in the boiling water and stir gently until just combined. The batter will be thick.
- Assemble and bake:
Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping over the peaches. Don’t worry about covering every inch — leave some gaps for the peach juices to bubble through.
Mix the optional cinnamon sugar topping and sprinkle over the top for an extra crispy, golden crust.
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling.
- Serve warm:
Let cool slightly (10–15 minutes).
Serve warm scoops of cobbler topped with creamy vanilla ice cream. The combo of warm fruit and cold cream is unbeatable! 😍
