Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- Pinch salt
- 1 cup milk
- 4 cups peeled, pitted and thinly sliced fresh peaches (5 to 6 medium peaches)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Several dashes ground cinnamon or ground nutmeg (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Pour the melted butter into a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup sugar, the baking powder, and the salt and mix well. Stir in the milk, mixing until just combined. Pour this batter over the butter but do not stir them together.
In a small saucepan, combine the peaches, lemon juice, and remaining cup of sugar and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Pour the peaches over the batter but do not stir them together. Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until the top is golden-brown. Serve warm or cold.

This is funny, since I just pulled my peach cobbler out of the oven about 2 minutes ago! I was hunting for peach recipes in my books this morning. I used a peach pie filling recipe from my Ball Canning book and the cobbler topping from Betty Crocker. I now have 9 pints of filling in the freezer and a 9x13 cobbler on the oven waiting for the in-laws, who called at noon to say they're in SD. Jim and Alex hate peaches, so that leaves a huge pan for me and the girls.
Did you do the easy blanch thing to peel the peaches? I just tried it this week - super easy to peel! Dunk them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then cool them quickly in ice water. Then the peels just slide right off!
Enjoy your cobbler! I'll have to try your recipe next time I have a huge batch of peaches!
