Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar, divided
1 Tbsp. baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
4 cups fresh peach slices (about 6-8 peaches)
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
Ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Combine flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
3. Pour melted butter in a 13- x 9-inch baking dish. Pour batter over butter (do not stir).
4. Bring remaining 1 cup sugar, peach slices, and lemon juice to a boil over high heat in a saucepan, stirring constantly.
5. Pour peach mixture over batter (do not stir). Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.
6. Bake at 375°F for 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Serve cobbler warm or cool.
Notes
For best results, use freestone peaches. Do not stir the layers; the chemistry of the baking powder and heat causes the batter to rise through the fruit naturally.
