Here’s a classic Old-Fashioned Peach Cobbler recipe—sweet, juicy peaches with a golden, biscuit-like topping:
🍑 Ingredients (for 6–8 servings)
For the filling:
- 6–8 fresh peaches (or 3–4 cups peeled/canned), sliced
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)
For the topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- Optional: ½ tsp vanilla extract
🍳 Instructions
- Preheat oven
- 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the filling
- In a bowl, mix peach slices, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- Make the topping
- In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Assemble
- Spoon the topping over the peaches. You can dollop or spread lightly; it doesn’t need to cover completely—the topping will expand while baking.
- Bake
- Bake for 35–45 minutes, until topping is golden and the peach filling is bubbling.
- Serve
- Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream for a classic touch.
🌟 Tips for Perfect Peach Cobbler
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for best flavor; canned peaches work too.
- Don’t overmix the topping—it should stay fluffy.
- Sprinkle a little sugar on top before baking for extra caramelization.
- Let it cool 10–15 minutes before serving to allow filling to set slightly.
