Easy Homemade Peach Cobbler

Sep 19, 2013 13:05

This is the easiest cobbler known to mankind and also happens to be my favorite. It's cakey and spongey in texture (not biscuity), which is why my family called it a "peach cobbler cake" when I was growing up. It's always been my "cobbler gold standard" despite the drop-dead simplicity of it. You can literally whip it up in 10 minutes, throw it in the oven during dinner, and have it piping hot for dessert with come vanilla bean ice cream.

Enjoy!





Easy Homemade Peach Cobbler
Recipe by: Willow Bird Baking
Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
Dash of salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1 large (or two regular) cans peaches in light syrup

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350F and spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish (or 12-inch cast iron skillet) with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Melt the stick of butter and pour it unceremoniously into the prepared baking dish. Mix the milk into the dry ingredients, whisk until the lumps are gone (the batter will be very liquidy), and then pour this batter over top of the melted butter in the prepared dish.

Pour can(s) of peaches over top of the batter, syrup and all. Do NOT stir this -- just let the peaches fall where they falls! Bake the cobbler for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and almost set. Serve hot with a big scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
