Ah, a Buttery Vanilla Peach Cobbler—perfect for a warm, comforting dessert! Here’s a complete recipe that’s easy to follow and yields a golden, gooey, fruity treat.
Ingredients
For the peach filling:
-
4 cups fresh or canned peaches, sliced (if fresh, peel them)
-
1/2 cup granulated sugar
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 tbsp lemon juice
-
2 tsp cornstarch (for thickening, optional if peaches are juicy)
For the cobbler topping:
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
1/4 cup granulated sugar
-
1/4 cup brown sugar
-
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
-
1/2 tsp salt
-
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
-
1/3 cup milk
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional for serving:
-
Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven:
-
Set to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish or similar.
-
-
Prepare the peach filling:
-
In a bowl, mix peaches, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using).
-
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
-
-
Make the cobbler topping:
-
In another bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Stir in melted butter, milk, and vanilla until just combined. The batter will be slightly thick.
-
-
Assemble the cobbler:
-
Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the peach mixture. It doesn’t need to cover entirely—gaps are okay; the topping spreads while baking.
-
-
Bake:
-
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
-
-
Serve:
-
Let it cool slightly (5–10 minutes), then serve warm with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
-
This cobbler has a buttery, slightly crisp top with soft, sweet, vanilla-scented peaches underneath—pure comfort in a dish.
If you want, I can also give a shortcut version using canned peaches and a box mix topping for a faster weeknight dessert. Do you want me to share that?
