Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups peaches (fresh, peeled, pitted, and sliced, or canned peaches, drained)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Liquid and Enriching Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Warm the oven to a toasty 350°F (175°C), preparing a cozy baking environment for the delectable dessert.
- Lovingly transform fresh peaches by gently removing their delicate skin, extracting the pits, and creating elegant slices. If using canned peaches, ensure thorough drainage.
- In a spacious mixing vessel, harmoniously blend flour, granulated sugar, leavening agent, mineral seasoning, and optional aromatic cinnamon until perfectly unified.
- Introduce luxurious melted butter, creamy milk, and fragrant vanilla extract to the dry mixture, whisking with precision until a silky, uniform batter emerges.
- Generously coat an 8×8-inch baking vessel with protective grease, then tenderly pour the velvety batter into its confines.
- Artfully distribute peach segments across the batter’s surface, allowing them to nestle gracefully without disturbing the underlying landscape.
- Slide the cobbler into the preheated oven, allowing it to transform for 40-45 minutes until the surface achieves a golden-bronze hue and peaches bubble with tantalizing excitement.
- Permit the cobbler a brief moment of tranquil cooling, then serve with optional clouds of whipped cream or a scoop of creamy ice cream for ultimate indulgence.
Notes
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the most intense, sweet flavor that bursts in every bite.
- Swap out regular flour with gluten-free alternatives for those with wheat sensitivities.
- Add a sprinkle of nutmeg or cardamom to enhance the warm, comforting spice profile of the cobbler.
- For a healthier version, reduce sugar and use Greek yogurt instead of ice cream as a topping.
