Here’s the super-easy Lazy Man (Lazy) Peach Cobbler recipe—sweet, buttery, bubbly, and done with almost no effort. This is the classic Southern-style “dump cobbler.”
🍑 Lazy Man Peach Cobbler
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 stick (½ cup) butter
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 large can (29 oz) sliced peaches in syrup
- Or two 15-oz cans
- Optional: ½–1 tsp cinnamon, ¼ tsp nutmeg
- Optional: extra ¼ cup sugar to sprinkle on top
Instructions
1. Preheat
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Melt butter
Place the stick of butter directly in a 9×13 baking dish.
Put the dish in the oven for a few minutes until the butter melts.
(Remove carefully!)
3. Mix batter
In a bowl, whisk together:
- Flour
- Sugar
- Milk
- Baking powder
- Salt
Don’t overmix—just stir until smooth.
4. Pour batter over butter
Pour batter into the pan right over the melted butter.
Do not stir.
5. Add peaches
Spoon the canned peaches with their syrup evenly over the top.
Do not stir.
6. Add spices
Sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg on top if desired.
7. Bake
Bake 45–55 minutes until golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
8. Serve
Let cool 10 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
⭐ Tips
- Using peaches with syrup gives the caramelized edges people love.
- If using fresh peaches, add ½–1 cup sugar and ½ cup water to mimic syrup.
- Adding a sprinkle of sugar on top before baking makes a lightly crisp crust.
- For extra richness: replace ¼ cup milk with heavy cream.
