The Best Southern Peach Cobbler Recipe

  • Author: Chef Mia

Description

Peach cobbler is a traditional dessert in the south and all over the world. Warm, sweet peaches with a decadent cobbler style crust is the perfect treat for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 bags Frozen peaches, 20 ounces each
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar, (white sugar)
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon Almond extract, (optional but recommended)
  • 1/2 tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons Corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon Cream of tartar
  • 1/2 stick Butter, unsalted, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  2. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick spray. In the same dish, add the frozen peaches, white and brown sugars, vanilla and almond extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, corn starch, cream of tartar, butter, water, and lemon juice.
  3. Mix the peaches together with the ingredients until everything is fully combined. Cover the dish with foil and cook the mixture in the oven for 20 minutes.
  4. While peaches are cooking, combine the all purpose flour, both white and brown sugars, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 tablespoon of the cinnamon.
  5. Work the cold stick of butter into the flour mixture by breaking it up with a pastry cutter or with your hands. Work it in until it looks like coarse meal or crumbles.
  6. Add the hot water and stir together with a spoon until it's just combined. The cobbler should have a drop biscuit-like texture.
  7. Remove the peaches from the oven and spoon cobbler dough mixture over the peaches. Make each dough droplet about the size of a golf ball leaving a tiny bit of space between each one (see photo and notes below) to ensure they cook through.
  8. Peaches will not be fully covered. Combine sugar and and remaining 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon and sprinkle the mixture over dough.
  9. Place the dish back in the oven uncovered and cook for an additional 30-45 minutes, until crust is golden brown. Check on it after 30 minutes for doneness and remove it once the cobbler crust is golden brown and delicious. And enjoy!

Notes

Substitute 8 fresh peaches in place of frozen peaches if desired. Fresh peaches are likely to yield more liquid.
Add more hot water to the cobbler if needed to achieve a doughy “drop-biscuit” like texture. Add 1 tablespoon at a time, no more than 1/2 cup total.
Cooking times may vary depending on oven settings. If cobbler is not cooked through, bake an additional 15-20 minutes.
If too much liquid remains, remove some using a turkey baster, or gently pour it out. Cobbler will thicken as it sits.
