1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Prepare the Peaches:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the peaches, half of the granulated sugar, and a dash of cinnamon if desired.
- Cook over medium heat until the peaches are soft and the sugar has dissolved, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Make the Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth.
- Carefully pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish, then pour the batter over the butter without mixing.
4. Assemble the Cobbler:
- Spoon the peach mixture over the batter in the baking dish.
- Do not stir; the batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes, creating a layered effect.
5. Bake the Cobbler:
