Appliances and Special Utensils

Ingredients

  • For the filling:
    • 5-6 large peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
    • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
    • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
    • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • For the topping:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1 cup milk
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Prepare Peaches: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 1 cup of granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly. Set aside.

  3. Melt Butter: Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  4. Make Batter: In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

  5. Assemble Cobbler: Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir; the batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.

  6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.

  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.

Enjoy your delicious, homemade Peach Cobbler!
