Ingredients
Peach Filling
- 4 tablespoons butter plus extra for greasing the pan
- 6 –8 fresh peaches peeled and sliced about 4 cups
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Batter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1½ cups self-rising flour
- 1½ cups milk
Streusel Topping
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons cold butter cubed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place baking dish in oven with a small pat of butter to heat.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons butter. Add peaches, ½ cup brown sugar, vanilla, salt, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Cook 6–10 minutes, until peaches soften and syrup thickens.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, self-rising flour, and milk, adding milk slowly to avoid lumps.
- In another bowl, combine ½ cup brown sugar, all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until crumbly.
- Remove hot baking dish from oven. Pour batter in first, then spoon peach mixture evenly over the top. Do not stir.
- Sprinkle streusel topping evenly across the cobbler.
- Bake 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and bubbling.
- Serve warm with homemade ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- Canned peaches work if drained well.
- Add nutmeg to the streusel for extra warmth.
- Sprinkle sugar on top before baking for extra crispness.
