Ingredients

For Peach Filling:

  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon cool water
  • 2 (15 oz.) cans sliced peaches in heavy syrup, undrained
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Crust:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • additional ground cinnamon for top (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place stick of butter in 11x7 inch (or 9x9 inch) baking dish. Heat in the oven for 5-10 minutes, just until butter melts. Remove from oven and set aside.
  • Create constarch slurry by mixing cornstarch and cool water in a small bowl until they are smooth.
  • To a large mixing bowl, add peaches with syrup, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Mix with spoon until sugars are dissolved and spices are incorporated.
  • Add lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cornstarch slurry. Mix until well combined. Set peach filling mixture aside.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, make batter for the crust by combining all-purpose flour, baking powder, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well combined and lumps of brown sugar are broken down.
  • Slowly add cold milk to dry ingredients, about 1/3 at a time, and mix well after each addition.
  • Pour the batter into your baking dish, on top of the melted butter. Gently spread batter to the edges of the baking dish. Do not stir the butter and batter together.
  • Evenly place peaches and liquid on top of batter. Sprinkle the top of cobbler lightly with ground cinnamon (optional).
  • Place baking dish on top of a foil-lined cookie sheet to catch any juice that bubbles over. Bake in preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until cobbler is golden brown and bubbly & crust is cooked through. Cool in dish for at least 20 minutes before serving.
