Ingredients
For the peach layer
- 2 cans (15 oz) each sliced peaches in juice or light syrup, drained
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp lemon juice optional, for brightness
For the batter topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
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.
Notes
- 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.
