Peach cobbler is a warm, comforting dessert made with fresh or canned peaches and topped with a buttery biscuit-like crust. It’s the perfect dessert for summer or any time you’re craving something sweet!
Ingredients (for 6 servings)
For the peach filling:
- 4 cups fresh peaches (peeled and sliced) or 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches, drained
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
For the biscuit topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cut into small cubes)
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the peach filling:
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly.
- Transfer the peach mixture into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish.
2️⃣ Prepare the biscuit topping:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the milk and stir gently until just combined. The dough should be thick and somewhat sticky.
3️⃣ Assemble the cobbler:
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the peach filling. Don’t worry if it’s not completely covered; the dough will spread as it bakes.
4️⃣ Bake the cobbler:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake the cobbler for about 40-45 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
5️⃣ Serve:
- Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving. It’s delicious on its own, or you can top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Enjoy!
This peach cobbler is the perfect combination of sweet, juicy peaches and a warm, crumbly topping. It’s great for family gatherings, special occasions, or just a cozy dessert at home!
