Ingredients
Scale
Main Fruit:
- 4 cups (800 g) fresh or canned peach slices (drained if canned)
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) milk
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by heating the oven to a toasty 375F (190C), creating the perfect warmth for a delectable dessert.
- Craft a silky batter by whisking flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl, then smoothly incorporate milk until the mixture reaches a luxurious consistency.
- Transform a 9×13-inch baking dish into a golden canvas by generously coating its bottom with melted butter, ensuring every inch glistens with richness.
- Gently cascade the prepared batter over the melted butter, allowing it to settle without disruption, then artfully arrange peach slices across the surface.
- Elevate the flavor profile by sprinkling brown sugar and a hint of cinnamon over the peaches, creating a tantalizingly sweet and aromatic topping.
- Slide the dish into the preheated oven, letting it bake for 40-45 minutes until the surface transforms into a golden-brown masterpiece and the batter rises tenderly around the peaches.
- Rescue the cobbler from the oven and allow it to rest briefly, letting the flavors meld and settle into a harmonious dessert.
- Serve the warm cobbler with a decadent scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream, creating a classic comfort dessert that promises pure indulgence.
Notes
- Ensure butter is fully melted and spread evenly across the baking dish for a crispy, golden bottom crust.
- Opt for ripe, juicy peaches at peak season to maximize natural sweetness and flavor intensity.
- Customize the spice profile by adding nutmeg or cardamom for a more complex aromatic experience.
- Make this dessert gluten-free by substituting all-purpose flour with almond or gluten-free baking flour blend.
