Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh fruit (peaches, berries, or apples)
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 1 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.75 cups milk
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or an equivalent-size cast-iron skillet.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the fresh fruit, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until the fruit is evenly coated. Set aside to macerate while preparing the batter.

Step 3

Place the unsalted butter in your prepared baking dish and put it in the preheating oven until the butter melts completely, around 4-6 minutes. Remove the dish and set aside.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk and vanilla extract, stirring until a smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir; the batter will rise and mix with the fruit as it bakes.

Step 6

Spoon the fruit mixture and its juices gently over the batter layer. Again, do not stir. Spread the fruit evenly for uniform flavor.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the crust comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for garnish.

Step 9

Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
