Ingredients
  

For the peach filling:

  • 6 cups ripe peaches about 6–7 peaches, peeled and sliced
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or cast iron skillet.

  • Melt butter and pour over the peaches without stirring.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk in another bowl until smooth. Pour evenly over the peaches without stirring.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Frozen peaches can be used if fresh ones are not available, but thaw and drain them well.
  • Avoid stirring once the batter is poured so the cobbler rises properly.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the filling for extra flavor.
  • Cooling slightly before serving makes it easier to scoop and helps the juices thicken.
