Peach Cobbler Recipe

Ingredients

• For the peaches:
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or canned peaches, drained)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• For the batter:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• Optional topping:
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the peaches:
   • In a medium saucepan, combine the peaches, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes until the peaches soften slightly. Set aside.
3. Prepare the batter:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk and melted butter, stirring until smooth.
4. Assemble the cobbler:
   • Pour the batter evenly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
   • Spoon the peaches and their juices over the batter. Do not stir; the batter will rise around the fruit during baking.
5. Add topping (optional):
   • Mix sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over the top.
6. Bake:
   • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbling.
7. Serve:
   • Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. It’s perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
