A warm, caramelized peach cobbler with a flaky, buttery biscuit topping that is quick and easy to make, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 600g)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (light or dark, 100g)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (190g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed (85g)
  • 3/4 cup whole milk (180ml)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (25g)
  • Optional: pinch of nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease your 9×9-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix gently until all slices are evenly coated. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the juices to mingle.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
  4. Cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or two forks until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
  5. Pour in the milk and stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined. The dough will be sticky but should hold together. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Pour the peach filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the peaches, covering as much surface as possible but leaving some gaps for steam to escape.
  8. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
  9. Let the cobbler cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the juices thicken.

Notes

Keep butter cold for flaky biscuits. Do not overmix biscuit dough. Let peach filling sit for 10 minutes before baking. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly. Cool cobbler 15 minutes before serving.
