Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 cup of whole milk
  • 2 cans 15 oz each of sliced peaches in syrup
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Melt the Butter

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F before you begin. Place the stick of butter inside your baking dish. Put the dish in the oven until the butter melts completely. Watch it carefully so it does not burn.

Prepare the Batter

  • In your large mixing bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Add the baking powder and a pinch of salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together. Slowly pour in the milk and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth.

Layer the Base

  • Take the hot baking dish out of the oven. Pour the batter directly over the melted butter. Do not stir the mixture at all. This layering creates a crust that rises around the peaches. It is a Southern secret!

Prepare the Peaches

  • Open your cans of peaches but do not drain the syrup. Pour the peaches and the syrup into a small saucepan. Add the ground cinnamon. Heat them over medium heat until the mixture is warm and fragrant.

Add the Fruit

  • Carefully pour the warm peaches over the batter. Again, do not stir the ingredients together. The batter will naturally bubble up through the peaches. This creates that iconic cobbler look. The colors will look beautiful together.

Bake Until Golden

  • Place the baking dish back into the oven. Bake for about 40 to 45 minutes. The crust should be a beautiful golden brown. Test it with a toothpick to ensure the cake part is done. Your kitchen will smell amazing.

Cool and Serve

  • Remove the cobbler from the oven carefully. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. This allows the fruit juices to thicken up. Serve it warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Notes

  • Self-Rising Flour: You can use self-rising flour if you omit the baking powder and salt.
  • Add Nuts: Sprinkle a handful of chopped pecans on top for a nice crunch.
  • Berry Mix: Substitute one can of peaches with blackberries for a "Peachberry" twist.
  • Spices: Add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger for a deeper flavor profile.
  • Sugar Swap: Use brown sugar in the batter for a rich caramel taste.
  • Butter Tip: Always use real butter rather than margarine for the best flavor.
