Easy Peach Cobbler
This Easy Peach Cobbler features a juicy filling made from sliced yellow peaches combined with brown and granulated sugars, lemon juice, vanilla, and starch to thicken. It is topped with a simple batter of flour, sugar, baking powder, milk, butter, and vanilla, baked until the top is golden and the filling is bubbling. The result is a warm dessert with a tender topping and sweet, slightly tart fruit filling ideal for serving with cold vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
Filling:
- 2 pounds yellow peaches
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- lemon juice juice from 1/2 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons corn starch or tapioca flour
Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup milk whole
- 6 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
To Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or butter a baking casserole dish that’s 9x6 or something comparable. Use what you have! And then set it aside.
To Make the Filling:
- In a large bowl, add the sliced peaches, brown sugar, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, vanilla and corn starch or tapioca starch. Toss it all together until combined. Add the filling to your prepared baking dish.
To Make the Topping:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Add the milk, butter and vanilla; mix until combined. Pour the topping on top of the filling. It’s ok if some of the filling is peaking through or it’s not a totally perfect on top.
- I like it when some of the filling shows through. And then transfer to the oven to bake for about 50 to 55 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve warm with cold vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Using fresh or frozen peaches is recommended; canned peaches tend to become too mushy.
- Other fruits like nectarines, summer berries, or plums can be used as filling alternatives.
- Grease the baking dish well to prevent sticking and ensure an even bake.
