🌡️ Oven Temperature:

375°F / 190°C

🧂 Ingredients

For the Peaches

  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter (100g)
  • 6 large ripe yellow peaches (about 900g)
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar (55g)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g)

For the Cobbler Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (120g)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup whole milk (180mL)
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

🥣 Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven to 375°F / 190°C.

  2. Melt the Butter:
    Cut butter into chunks and place in a 9×13-inch (or 3-quart) baking dish. Put the dish in the preheating oven until butter is fully melted. Remove and set aside.

  3. Prepare the Peaches:
    Peel the peaches, slice them in half, remove the pits, and cut into ¼-inch slices. Add peaches to a large skillet. Sprinkle with brown and white sugar, stir, and cook over medium heat for 3–5 minutes, just until sugar dissolves. Do not overcook. Remove from heat.

  4. Make the Batter:
    In a bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the milk and stir until just combined.

  5. Assemble the Cobbler:
    Pour the batter into the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not mix. Gently spoon the peach mixture (and its juices) over the batter, spreading evenly but leaving some gaps for the batter to rise through.

  6. Bake:
    Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and springs back when lightly pressed.

💡 Notes & Variations

  • Don’t Overcook Peaches: They’ll continue cooking in the oven, so just heat until the sugars dissolve.
  • Dish Options: Can be made in a 9x13-inch dish, two 8x8-inch dishes, or individual 8oz ramekins.
  • Topping Tip: For a cinnamon sugar crust, mix 1 tbsp granulated sugar with ½ tsp cinnamon and sprinkle before baking.
