A simple, comforting peach cobbler with a buttery crust and juicy, lightly spiced peaches, perfect served warm with creamy vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 medium fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 4 cups)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Peel and slice peaches into 1/2-inch thick slices. In a large bowl, toss peaches with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt until evenly coated.
  3. Transfer peach mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cut in cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter or two forks until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter bits.
  5. Add milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Stir gently until just combined; batter should be thick but spreadable.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the topping unevenly over the peach filling, leaving some gaps.
  7. Bake on the middle rack for 35–40 minutes until topping is golden brown and peach filling is bubbly. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  8. Let cobbler cool on a rack for 10 minutes before serving.
  9. Serve warm with generous scoops of creamy vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Keep butter cold when mixing topping for flaky crust. Don’t overmix topping batter to avoid toughness. Let cobbler rest 10 minutes before serving to thicken filling. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil. For gluten-free, substitute flour with almond or oat flour. For dairy-free, use coconut or almond milk and vegan butter. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained.
