Ingredients
4 cups fresh or frozen peaches, sliced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir to coat the peaches evenly and set aside.
In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar. Stir in the melted butter and milk until a thick batter forms.
Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches, covering as much of the surface as possible. It’s okay if some of the peaches are exposed.
Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top of the batter for extra flavor.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling around the edges.
Let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!

Storage/Reheating
This peach cobbler stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, I like to place it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes until warmed through. If I want to enjoy it again, I also recommend reheating it in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, but the oven method will help retain the crispness of the topping.
FAQs
Can I use frozen peaches for this cobbler?
Yes, I can definitely use frozen peaches. If I do, I’ll make sure to thaw them and drain any excess liquid before mixing them with the sugar and other ingredients. This ensures the cobbler doesn’t become too watery.
How do I make the cobbler crust more crispy?
For a crispier topping, I recommend adding a tablespoon or two of extra butter to the batter or sprinkling some coarse sugar over the top before baking. This will give it that golden, crispy texture I love.
Can I use a different type of fruit for this cobbler?
Absolutely! I can swap peaches for other fruits, such as apples, berries, or a combination of fruits. Just keep in mind that the baking time may vary depending on the fruit I use.
How do I know when the cobbler is done baking?
I’ll know the cobbler is done when the top is golden brown, and the peaches are bubbling around the edges. A toothpick inserted into the batter should come out clean, with no wet batter stuck to it.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes, I can prepare the peach mixture and the batter in advance. Just store them separately in the fridge and assemble the cobbler right before baking. It’s best to bake it fresh, but it will keep well for a day or two after baking as well.
Conclusion
This Super Easy Peach Cobbler is the perfect dessert to whip up when I’m craving something warm, comforting, and delicious. With minimal prep and a delightful combination of sweet peaches and a buttery topping, it’s sure to become a family favorite. Whether I’m enjoying it solo or sharing with others, it’s a dessert that never disappoints.
