Here’s a classic Fresh Southern Peach Cobbler recipe—perfectly sweet, buttery, and full of juicy peaches!
Ingredients:
For the peaches:
• 5-6 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 4 cups)
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ¼ tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the batter:
• ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• ¾ cup milk
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven: Set to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Peaches: In a bowl, mix the sliced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Let sit for 10-15 minutes to release juices.
3. Melt Butter: Place butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and melt it in the oven while preheating.
4. Make the Batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk until just combined.
5. Assemble: Pour the batter over the melted butter (do not stir). Spoon the peach mixture evenly on top. The batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.
6. Bake: Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
7. Serve: Let cool slightly and serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
