Ingredients

Fruity Filling:

  • 6-8 ripe peaches (5-6 cups, sliced)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Golden Crust:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup hot water

Radiant Finish:

  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare the Fruity Filling:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, flour, salt, vanilla essence, lemon juice, and optional cinnamon. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly.
  3. Assemble the Filling:
    Transfer the peach mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  4. Prepare the Golden Crust:
    In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the hot water until the dough is evenly moistened.
  5. Spread the Crust:
    Spoon or spread the crust mixture over the peach filling, ensuring it covers most of the surface.
  6. Add the Radiant Finish:
    In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the crust.
  7. Bake:
    Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
  8. Serve:
    Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.

Tips:

  • If fresh peaches aren’t available, you can substitute them with frozen or canned peaches. Just be sure to drain them well.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg to the filling for extra warmth and flavor.

Enjoy this classic dessert that will bring back cherished memories of family gatherings!
