Grandma’s Timeless Peach Cobbler
A classic, comforting dessert that combines tender peaches with a soft, buttery biscuit topping. Perfect warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or fresh cream.
Ingredients
- 5 cups fresh or canned sliced peaches (drained if canned)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (adjust to sweetness of peaches)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or nutmeg on top
Instructions
- Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). - Prepare the Peach Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Toss gently and set aside. - Make the Batter
In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in melted butter, milk, and vanilla until just combined (do not overmix). - Assemble the Cobbler
Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spoon the batter evenly over the peaches. It’s okay if some peaches peek through. - Bake
Bake for 40–45 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden and cooked through. - Cool Slightly and Serve
Let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Tips
- Use fresh ripe peaches in season for best flavor.
- Frozen peaches can be substituted but thaw and drain excess liquid.
- For extra richness, brush the topping with melted butter before baking.
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream when serving.
