Measuring cups and spoons
Oven

Ingredients

For the peach layer:

2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches in juice or light syrup, drained
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

For the batter topping:

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the peaches: In a bowl, combine drained peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and lemon juice. Set aside.
Make the batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add milk and mix until smooth. Stir in melted butter.
Assemble the cobbler: Pour the batter into the greased baking dish. Do not stir. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the top of the batter. It may look like a mess, but trust the process—it bakes beautifully.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Tips for Success

Use canned peaches with juice or light syrup, not heavy syrup, for a balanced sweetness.
Don’t stir the batter and peaches together. The layered method creates that perfect cobbler texture.
Fresh or frozen peaches work too! Just be sure to cook them down slightly and adjust sweetness.
Serve warm for best flavor, and let it rest for a few minutes out of the oven to thicken naturally.

Common Questions

Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?
Yes! Use about 4 cups of peeled, sliced peaches. Toss them with 2–3 tablespoons of sugar and a squeeze of lemon before layering.

Do I need to refrigerate leftovers?
Yes. Store cooled cobbler in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.

Can I make it dairy-free?
Absolutely. Use plant-based butter and non-dairy milk like almond or oat milk.

What if I want it less sweet?
Cut the sugar in both the peach filling and the batter by 1/4 cup each without sacrificing flavor.
