Ingredients

Filling

  • ¼ cup  light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup sugar I like cane sugar, but white sugar works great also
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp lemon juice fresh squeezed if possible
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 3 15 oz cans of peaches in juice not syrup
  • Pinch of nutmeg

Crust

  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup regular sugar
  • ¼ tsp  salt
  • 1 cup  all purpose flour
  • 1 cup of milk at room temp
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 stick of butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit or 177 celcius.

Let’s make the filling:

  • In a medium to large saucepan empty 2 cans of peaches with the juice.
  • Drain the 3rd can of peaches and add it to the saucepan.
  • Now add the ¼ cup of sugar and ¼ cup of light brown sugar to the pan.
  • Add the 4 tbsp of butter, 1 tsp of lemon juice, ½ tsp of cinnamon and pinch of nutmeg to the pan.
  • Give a gentle stir to combine all the ingredients.
  • Continue to stir over medium heat until all the sugar dissolves and the liquid turns to a syrup like consistency. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  • I like for the syrup to have a consistency that slightly coats the back of the spatula.

Let's Make the Crust Batter

  • In a medium bowl, add all the dry ingredients. The 1 cup of flour, ¼ cup of sugar, ¼ cup of brown sugar, 2 tsp of baking powder, and ¼ tsp of salt. Give a quick stir to combine.
  • To that same bowl, add about ⅔ cup of your room temperature milk, 1 egg, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
  • Mix all the ingredients to combine. You are looking for a cake batter like consistency. Add additional milk 1 tbsp at a time until desired consistency is reached. *Note: You may not need all of the reserved milk.

Let's Bake it

  • Melt 1 stick of butter and add to your baking dish. I used 2 loaf pans but you can also use a 9x13 baking dish. Just make sure to add even amounts of butter to each loaf pan.
  • Pour the batter over the melted butter.
  • Add the peaches on top of the batter and press the peaches into the mix. *Do Not Stir.
  • Place the baking dish into the oven and cook for 40-50 mins.

Notes

  • It is very important that you remember NOT to stir the batter once the peaches are in the mixture. You can slightly press down but stirring is a definite no-no. Take my word for it. 
 
  • The batter used for the crust can be used in all kinds of other cobbler recipes. Just add a different filling. It’s that good that you’ll want to explore other recipes with it.
