Classic Peach Cobbler
Peach Cobbler is a comforting dessert that features tender peaches baked under a golden, buttery crust. It's perfect served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Ingredients:
- 6 cups sliced, peeled fresh peaches
- 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 1/2 cup of sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to combine and let sit for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup of sugar. Gradually stir in the milk until just combined. Finally, fold in the melted butter until the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the batter into a greased baking dish (approx. 9x13 inches). Spoon the peach mixture over the top of the batter, ensuring the peaches are evenly distributed.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the batter is cooked through. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, topped with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
