Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can (15 ounces / 425 grams) sliced peaches, drained
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) milk
- 1 cup (125 grams) flour
Sweeteners:
- 1 cup (200 grams) sugar
Other Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Activate the oven to 350F (175C), creating an ideal baking environment for the cobbler.
- Drizzle melted butter into an 8×8-inch baking vessel, coating the entire bottom surface thoroughly.
- Merge flour, sugar, baking powder, and milk in a large mixing bowl, whisking gently until ingredients are just incorporated without aggressive stirring.
- Cascade the prepared batter over the melted butter, allowing it to settle naturally without manual intervention.
- Distribute drained peach slices across the batter’s surface, maintaining an even arrangement and resisting the urge to mix or disturb the layers.
- Transfer the baking dish into the preheated oven, allowing 30-35 minutes of baking time until a golden-brown crust develops and edges transform into a crispy texture.
- Remove from oven and permit the cobbler to rest momentarily, cooling slightly to enhance structural integrity and flavor melding.
- Present the warm dessert accompanied by a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream or a generous dollop of softly whipped cream to elevate the sensory experience.
Notes
- Swap fresh peaches with frozen or canned varieties when fresh fruit isn’t available, ensuring they’re well-drained to prevent excess liquid.
- Create a gluten-free version by substituting all-purpose flour with almond or gluten-free baking mix for those with dietary restrictions.
- Enhance flavor complexity by adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter, which complements the sweet peaches beautifully.
- Prevent soggy bottom by using slightly firmer peaches and avoiding excess syrup when adding fruit to the baking dish.
