Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the melted butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish.Prepare the Peaches
In a mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches with half the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Let them sit for 10 minutes to release their juices.Make the Batter
In another bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, and milk until smooth.Layer the Cobbler
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the dish—don’t stir! Then spoon the peaches and their juices evenly over the batter. (The magic of cobbler is that the batter rises around the fruit as it bakes.)Bake and Enjoy
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and crisp. Sprinkle with a little sugar during the last 10 minutes for extra sparkle and crunch.Serve with Love
Scoop generous portions while still warm. A dollop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of fresh cream makes it heavenly.
Tips for Cobbler Perfection
Fresh peaches are best, but canned or frozen peaches work when fresh ones aren’t in season.
Don’t stir the layers—the “magic crust” happens when the batter and fruit bake together naturally.
Add a touch of brown sugar for deeper caramel-like flavor.
For a cozy twist, sprinkle chopped pecans or oats on top before baking.
