This classic southern peach cobbler features a sweet peach filling topped with a buttery, golden crust.
Ingredients
- 6 cups fresh or frozen peach slices
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine peach slices, 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss gently to combine.
- Pour the peach mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in milk and vanilla extract until just combined to form a soft dough.
- Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the peach filling.
- Sprinkle the coarse sugar over the top of the dough.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving.

- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
