A classic Southern peach cobbler featuring tender peaches under a fluffy, buttery biscuit topping. Easy to make and perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for tossing peaches)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Peel, pit, and slice peaches. Toss with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Let sit for 10 minutes to macerate.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until just combined.
  4. Pour peach mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Gently pour batter over peaches without stirring.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes until topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the batter comes out clean.
  6. Let cobbler cool for about 15 minutes before serving to allow juices to thicken.
  7. Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

If topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Let cobbler rest before serving to thicken juices. Frozen peaches can be used if fresh are unavailable. For gluten-free, substitute flour with gluten-free blend; for dairy-free, use plant-based milk and butter substitutes.
