Peach Cobbler Recipe

Ingredients

For the Peach Filling:

• 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or canned peaches, drained)
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch

For the Cobbler Topping:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
• 1/4 cup boiling water

For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Prepare the Peach Filling:
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
   • In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix well until the peaches are evenly coated.
   • Transfer the peach mixture to a 9×13-inch baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
2. Prepare the Cobbler Topping:
   • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
   • Add the chilled butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
   • Stir in the boiling water until the mixture forms a dough.
3. Assemble the Cobbler:
   • Remove the baking dish with the peaches from the oven.
   • Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler dough over the hot peaches, spreading it out as evenly as possible.
4. Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
   • In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
   • Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over the cobbler dough.
5. Bake the Cobbler:
   • Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 25 to 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
6. Serve:
   • Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving.
   • Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
