A warm and comforting peach cobbler recipe perfect for using fresh, ripe peaches. This easy-to-make dessert features tender peaches baked under a sweet, buttery biscuit topping, spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh sliced peaches (about 6-8 medium peaches)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently toss the sliced peaches with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of the flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into an 8×8 inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Gradually add the milk, stirring until just combined to form a soft dough. Do not overmix.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the peach mixture in the baking dish.
  8. Brush the tops of the dough with the melted butter.
  9. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
  10. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For an extra rich flavor, you can add a pinch of cardamom to the peach mixture.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delightful treat.
  • If your peaches are very ripe, you may need to reduce the sugar slightly.
