Ingredients
  

Peach Filling
  • 4 cups fresh peaches (or 2 cans of sliced peaches in juice) Use ripe, in-season peaches for best flavor.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar Part of this will be used in the batter.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Add warmth to the peach mixture.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
Cobbler Batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Provides moisture and richness.
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder Leavening agent for the batter.
  • 1 pinch salt Balances sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them, then fold in a bowl with 1/2 cup of the sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Add in the milk and melted butter, stirring until just combined. The batter will have a slightly lumpy texture.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish. Do not stir; it will rise during baking.
  2. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. You might notice the peaches want to float, but this is perfectly fine!
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
