Super Easy Peach Cobbler

This Super Easy Peach Cobbler recipe is a delightfully simple and delicious dessert, perfect for those who love fruity flavors with minimal fuss in the kitchen. Let’s delve into a more detailed version of your recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk (any variety works, but whole milk will make it richer)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • One 15 oz. can of sliced peaches, drained

Detailed Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the oven is at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake.
  1. Prepare the Baking Dish:
  • Take an 8×8 inch baking dish and pour the 1/2 cup of melted butter into it. Swirl the dish around a bit so the butter coats the bottom and sides. This will prevent sticking and add a rich, buttery flavor to the cobbler.
  1. Mix the Batter:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour with 1 cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. These dry ingredients form the base of your cobbler topping.
  • Gradually add 1 cup of milk to the dry ingredients. Whisk them together until you have a smooth batter. The consistency should be pourable but not too runny.
  1. Assemble the Cobbler:
  • Gently pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. It’s important not to stir the mixture; the butter will rise up and around the batter as it cooks, creating a deliciously moist topping.
  • Evenly place the drained sliced peaches over the top of the batter. The peaches will sink slightly, but this is normal and part of what makes the cobbler so tasty.
  1. Bake the Cobbler:
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the top is a lovely golden brown and the edges are crispy.
  • The baking time might vary slightly depending on your oven, so it’s good to check the cobbler around the 25-minute mark.
  1. Serving:
  • Once baked, remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.

Additional Tips:

  • Fresh Peaches: If it’s peach season, you can use fresh peaches instead of canned. Just peel, slice, and use the same amount as the canned peaches.
  • Adding Spices: For an extra flavor kick, consider adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to the peach layer.
  • Storing Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, they can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven or microwave.

This Super Easy Peach Cobbler is a fantastic dessert that combines the comfort of warm, sweet peaches with a tender, buttery crust. It’s perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a family dinner or a special gathering. Enjoy your baking!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups canned or fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (reserve juice if using canned)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the Peaches:

    • If using fresh peaches, toss them with half the sugar in a bowl and set aside for 10 minutes to release juices.
    • If using canned peaches, drain (reserving a little juice) and mix with half the sugar.
  3. Make the Batter:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining sugar.
    • Add milk and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
  4. Assemble the Cobbler:

    • Pour the melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish.
    • Spread the batter evenly over the butter—do not stir.
    • Arrange the peaches (and juice if desired) on top of the batter. Sprinkle with cinnamon if using.
  5. Bake:

    • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the batter has risen around the peaches.
  6. Cool and Serve:

    • Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • You can substitute peaches with other fruits like apples, cherries, or berries.
  • For extra texture, sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on top before baking for a crisp crust.
