Necessary Kitchen Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- 9×13-inch baking dish
- Spatula or wooden spoon
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (29 oz) can sliced peaches in syrup, undrained
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional, for sprinkling)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare the Batter:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually stir in the milk until the batter is smooth.
Assemble the Cobbler:
- Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Pour the batter over the butter. Do not stir.
- Evenly distribute the peaches and syrup over the batter. Again, do not stir. The batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.
Bake:
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the batter is fully cooked.
- Optional: Sprinkle cinnamon over the cobbler during the last 5 minutes of baking for added flavor.
Serve:
- Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Recipe Tips
- Fresh Peaches: If you prefer fresh peaches, use about 4–5 peeled and sliced peaches. Add ½ cup of sugar and ¼ cup of water to mimic the syrup.
- Add a Twist: Mix in a handful of blueberries or raspberries with the peaches for a berry twist.
- Brown Sugar Topping: Sprinkle brown sugar over the peaches for a caramelized flavor.
