Description
A warm, golden-crusted peach cobbler baked in one pan for quick weeknight comfort or celebratory dessert. Combines gooey sugared peaches with a buttery, cinnamon-spiced topping—all made fuss-free.
Ingredients
5 fresh peaches, peeled and cored (4 cups)
1¾ cups granulated sugar (350g; use coconut sugar for lower glycemic index)
½ tsp salt (enhances fruit sweetness)
6 tbsp (85g) butter, softened; use dairy-free margarine for vegan option
1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour; substitute almond flour for grain-free
¾ cup (180ml) milk; non-dairy alternatives work well
Ground cinnamon (optional; substitute cardamom for spice variation)
Instructions
Add sliced peaches, ¾ cup sugar, and ¼ tsp salt to a saucepan
Cook on medium heat until sugar dissolves (3–4 minutes), then remove from heat
Preheat oven to 350°F and place butter in a 9×13″ baking dish
Insert the dish in the oven during preheating to melt the butter (5 minutes)
Combine flour, remaining 1 cup sugar, baking powder (1 tsp), and remaining ¼ tsp salt in a bowl
Stir in milk until just mixed (batter will be lumpy)
Pour batter over melted butter in the dish, spreading evenly
Spoon hot peach mixture over the batter; sprinkle with cinnamon
Bake for 38–40 minutes until golden; cool 10 minutes before serving
Notes
Use peaches at peak ripeness for maximum juiciness
Cool batter to room temperature before pouring into dish
For gluten-free flour substitution, use 1 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour
For grain-free option, replace flour with almond flour (1:1 ratio)
Substitute 2 cans (14.5 oz each) peeled peaches if fresh peaches are unavailable
