Description
This quick peach cobbler recipe has a simple batter made with sugar, flour, and milk. A reader favorite that takes minutes to stir together!
Ingredients
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 ¾ cup sugar divided
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 3 pounds fresh ripe peaches* (5-6 peaches)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Mix in 1 cup sugar.
- Slowly stir in milk to make a batter.
- Melt butter in a deep casserole dish (about 3 quarts).
- Pour batter over melted butter. Do not stir.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully add peaches (I use tongs) and boil for about 1 minute.
- Remove peaches from the pot and plunge them into a bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Skins can now be easily removed with fingers. Slice peaches into bite-sized pieces.
- In a clean bowl, Mix the peeled, sliced peaches and 3/4 cup sugar thoroughly and carefully spoon them over the batter.
- Bake for 1 hour. The batter should be golden brown on top before removing from oven. Top with heavy cream or vanilla ice cream.
