Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (113 g) butter
  • 4 cups (620 g) peaches fresh, frozen and thawed, or canned
  • 1/2 cup (99 g) sugar

Peach Cobbler Batter

  • 1 cup (120 g) flour
  • 1 cup (198 g) sugar
  • 2 teaspoons (8 g) baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1 g) kosher salt
  • 1 cup (227 g) milk

Optional Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prep. Preheat the oven to 350º F. Add sliced butter to the baking dish and place in the oven while it preheats to allow the butter to melt. Remove the baking dish once the butter has melted.
  • Prep the peaches. Add peeled and sliced fresh peaches and 1/2 cup sugar to a bowl and toss to combine. If using thawed frozen peaches, do the same as fresh peaches. If using canned peaches, drain away the juices from one can of peaches and only use the juices from one can.
  • Make the cobbler batter. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the milk and whisk until smooth and well combined. If using self-rising flour, omit the baking powder and salt.
  • Add peaches. Pour the peaches over the melted butter, evenly distributing over the melted butter. Do not stir.
  • Add the cobbler batter. Pour the cobbler batter evenly over the peaches, do not stir.
  • Bake. Bake until lightly golden brown on top, about 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest about 3 minutes.
  • Serve. Serve warm.
