🛒 Ingredients

🍑 Fruit Filling

• 1 (29 oz) can sliced peaches in syrup or juice (or 4 cups fresh/frozen peaches)
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
• 1 tsp lemon juice

🧁 Cobbler Batter

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 cup milk
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted

👩‍🍳 Directions

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare Dish

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Pour melted butter into a 9×9-inch or 8×8-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Mix the Batter

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. Stir in milk and vanilla until smooth (a few lumps are okay).

Step 3: Add Peaches

1. If using canned peaches, pour into a bowl with the juice/syrup. Add sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Stir to combine.
2. If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them first. Cook in a pan for 5–10 minutes with a bit of sugar and water if needed.

Step 4: Assemble the Cobbler

1. Pour batter evenly over the melted butter—do not stir.
2. Spoon peaches (with syrup/juices) over the batter—again, do not stir.

Step 5: Bake

1. Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
2. Let cool slightly before serving to allow juices to thicken.
