Ingredients
Scale
main ingredients:
- 6 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
topping ingredients:
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
additional flavor ingredients:
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and generously grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter to prevent sticking.
- Arrange the fresh peach slices evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish, creating a uniform layer of fruit.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined and lump-free.
- Gradually pour milk and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth, silky batter forms.
- Carefully pour the batter over the peach slices, ensuring it spreads evenly without disturbing the fruit layer.
- Melt the unsalted butter and gently drizzle it across the top of the batter, creating small pools of richness.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon and nutmeg over the surface, distributing the warm spices for enhanced flavor complexity.
- Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown and a crisp crust forms.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cobbler to cool for 15-20 minutes, allowing the filling to set and flavors to meld together.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent dessert experience.
Notes
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches at peak season for maximum sweetness and flavor intensity.
- Slice peaches uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the cobbler.
- Adjust spice levels by increasing or decreasing ground cinnamon and nutmeg according to personal preference.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with almond flour or a gluten-free baking blend.
