Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt butter in a 9 x 11-inch pan in a 350°F oven.
- Combine sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Add milk and blend well to make the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan with melted butter.
- Spoon peaches and their juice over the batter without stirring.
- Bake at 350°F for about 40 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar. If you don't have sliced peaches, fresh peaches or canned fruit cocktail can be used. Ensure the butter is fully melted before adding the batter, as this helps create a delicious crust. If you're looking for a twist, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for added warmth, which is reminiscent of other American recipes.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this delightful peach cobbler warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent dessert. It pairs beautifully with a light salad like Betty Beaman Salad or can be enjoyed as a sweet breakfast treat. For an added crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts on top before serving.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover peach cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual servings in the microwave for 30-60 seconds or warm the entire dish in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes, until heated through. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
