Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 can (15 oz) sliced peaches in juice, undrained
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Optional for Serving
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat Oven. Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
- Prepare Butter Base. Pour the melted butter into a 9×9-inch baking dish, ensuring it coats the bottom evenly.
- Mix Batter. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually stir in the milk and vanilla extract until just combined without overmixing.
- Assemble Cobbler. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the dish, but do not stir them together.
- Add Peaches. Spoon the canned peaches along with their juice evenly over the batter. Optionally, sprinkle cinnamon on top for added flavor.
- Bake. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40–45 minutes until the top is golden brown and batter is set.
- Cool & Serve. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- Substitute fresh or frozen peaches (about 2 cups sliced) for canned peaches. Add extra sugar if peaches are not sweetened.
- This recipe works well with other fruits such as berries or apples.
