A warm and comforting peach cobbler with a tender crust and spiced peach filling, perfect for harvest season and cozy autumn evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/4 cup milk (whole milk preferred, can substitute almond or oat milk)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  2. Peel, pit, and slice the peaches to about 1/2-inch thickness. Place them in a large bowl and toss with the lemon juice, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and half the cinnamon and nutmeg. Let sit for 10 minutes to macerate.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, remaining granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the rest of the cinnamon and nutmeg.
  4. Pour in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir gently just until combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading evenly.
  6. Spoon the batter over the peaches, covering as much as possible but allowing some peaches to peek through.
  7. Bake for 40–45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and peach juices are bubbly. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil halfway through baking.
  8. Cool slightly for 15-20 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

If peaches are not in season, use thawed frozen sliced peaches. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and milk with coconut milk. Gluten-free flour blends can replace all-purpose flour but may alter texture slightly. To prevent topping from burning, tent with foil halfway through baking. Let cobbler rest before serving to thicken juices.
