Ingredients

  • 3 cups sliced fresh peaches
  • 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 beaten egg

Instructions

  1. Place sliced peaches on the bottom of an oblong baking dish and sprinkle with lemon juice.
  2. Sift together all-purpose flour, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. Add beaten egg to the dry ingredients, tossing with a fork until crumbly.
  4. Sprinkle the crumbly mixture over the peaches and drizzle with melted butter.
  5. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35 to 40 minutes.
  6. Serve topped with cinnamon and ice cream, if desired.

Tips & Substitutions

To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg along with the cinnamon. If fresh peaches aren't available, you can substitute with canned peaches in syrup (drain them well) or frozen peaches (thaw and drain before using). For a richer taste, try using brown sugar instead of white. Ensure the butter is evenly drizzled to create a crispy topping.

Serving Suggestions

This peach cobbler pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top. It can also be served warm as a dessert after a hearty meal. For a complete summer experience, consider serving it alongside a refreshing Banana Crunch Salad or with a side of Quick Rolls Or Bread for a comforting meal.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover peach cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual portions in the microwave for 30-60 seconds or warm it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through. Consider serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen peaches for this recipe?

Yes, frozen peaches can be used. Just make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture, which can make the cobbler soggy. They should be sliced and treated the same way as fresh peaches in the recipe.

How can I tell when the peach cobbler is done baking?

The cobbler is done when the top is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges. A toothpick inserted into the topping should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, indicating that it is fully cooked.

Can I make this cobbler ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the peach filling and crumb mixture ahead of time, storing them separately in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake the cobbler when you're ready to serve. However, for the best texture, it's recommended to bake it fresh if possible.
