Ingredients

• 6 whole (medium-sized) fresh peaches
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel and slice the peaches into thin wedges. Place the peach slices in a large bowl.

Step 3

Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice to the peaches. Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the peaches to release their juices.

Step 4

Meanwhile, place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Put the dish in the preheated oven for 5 minutes or until the butter melts. Carefully remove the dish from the oven.

Step 5

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.

Step 8

Spoon the peach mixture and its juices evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir; the batter will rise around the peaches while baking.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
