Old Time Oven Peach Cobbler

Ingredients:

For the Filling:

  • 4 cups fresh peaches (peeled and sliced) or 2 cans of sliced peaches (in juice, drained)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (if using fresh peaches)

For the Cobbler Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  1. Prepare the Peach Filling:
  • In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using fresh peaches). Toss until the peaches are well coated.
  • Spread the peach mixture evenly in the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
  1. Make the Cobbler Topping:
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using) to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
  1. Assemble the Cobbler:
  • Pour the cobbler batter over the peach filling in the baking dish. Do not stir; it will bake up around the peaches.
  1. Bake:
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean.
  1. Serve:
  • Allow to cool slightly before serving. This cobbler is delicious on its own or served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top.

Tips:

  • If using canned peaches, be sure to drain them well to prevent excess liquid from making the cobbler soggy.
  • For an extra touch, you can sprinkle some brown sugar or cinnamon on top of the batter before baking.
