A quick and easy peach cobbler recipe featuring juicy peaches and a buttery golden crust, perfect for family gatherings and casual dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 56 medium peaches)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust depending on peach sweetness)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or almond/oat flour for gluten-free)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole milk (or dairy-free milk like almond or oat milk)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons coarse sugar (like turbinado) for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel (if desired) and slice peaches into about 1/2-inch thick pieces. Toss with granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and cornstarch. Mix gently and let sit for 10 minutes to macerate.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add milk, stirring until smooth. Pour in melted butter and mix gently until combined.
  4. Pour batter evenly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Spoon peach mixture evenly over the batter including juices. Do not stir.
  5. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top if desired.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes until crust is golden brown and peach filling bubbles around edges. Test doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Let cool slightly for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If crust browns too fast, tent with foil after 30 minutes. Use fresh ripe peaches for best flavor. Let peaches macerate to release juices. For gluten-free, substitute flour with almond or oat flour. For vegan, use plant-based milk and replace butter with coconut oil or vegan margarine. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Leftovers keep up to 3 days refrigerated; reheat gently in oven.
