Classic Southern Peach Cobbler
Classic Southern peach cobbler layers sweetened fresh or canned peaches with a simple drop-biscuit or poured batter topping that bakes up golden and tender. A pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg seasons the fruit filling. The whole dish goes from pantry to oven in about 15 minutes and bakes for 40 to 45 minutes until bubbling.
Equipment
- 9x13 inch baking dish
- Mixing Bowls
- Whisk
- Oven
Ingredients
For the Filling:
- 8 cups fresh peaches peeled and sliced
- 1 cup granulated sugar divided
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk whole
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peaches, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently until the peaches are coated evenly.
- Transfer the peach mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk, stirring until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the melted butter over the peach mixture, then evenly spoon the batter on top, allowing some of the peaches to peek through.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar evenly over the batter for a sweet, crispy crust.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
Notes
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an irresistible treat.
