The Best Peach Cobbler Recipe

Prepare Your Peaches: Bring a large pot of water to boil and cut a small ‘X’ at the bottom of each peach. Submerge peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to an ice bath. Peel and slice peaches into wedges.

Create the Fruit Base: In a large bowl, mix sliced peaches with sugars, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and vanilla. Transfer to a baking dish.

Prepare the Cobbler Topping: Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Assemble and Bake: Stir boiling water into topping mixture. Drop spoonfuls over peach filling. Bake for 50-55 minutes until topping is golden and filling is bubbling.

Cool and Serve: Let cobbler cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
