This quick and easy peach cobbler recipe is a delightful dessert that comes together with just five simple ingredients. It’s a perfect way to enjoy the sweet taste of peaches in a classic, comforting dish. Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of self-rising flour (If you only have all-purpose flour, add 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt to make it self-rising.)
- 1 cup of milk
- ½ cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (29 ounce) can of sliced peaches in heavy syrup, undrained
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sugar and flour. Add the milk slowly to prevent clumping and stir until well combined.
- Melt the butter and pour it into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Pour the flour and milk mixture over the butter. Do not stir.
- Spoon the peaches and syrup evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is set.
- Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Recipe Tips:
- For a richer flavor, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- If you prefer a less sweet cobbler, you can reduce the amount of sugar in the batter.
- Toasting some pecans or walnuts and sprinkling them on top before baking adds a lovely crunch.
- This cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
