Ingredients
You don’t need fancy stuff — just these basics!
- 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches in syrup
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Optional: ground cinnamon or nutmeg for sprinkling
Directions
Let’s get baking!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the cobbler bakes evenly and comes out perfectly golden and bubbly.
- Open the cans of sliced peaches and drain them, but keep the syrup from one can. Set the peaches aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Pour in the milk and stir until the batter is smooth with no lumps.
- Pour the melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking dish. Then pour the batter over the melted butter without stirring.
- Spoon the drained peaches evenly over the batter.
- Take the reserved syrup, mix it with the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, and drizzle it over the top of the peaches.
- If desired, sprinkle a bit of ground cinnamon or nutmeg on top.
- Place the cobbler in your preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
- Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving, ideally with vanilla ice cream.

FAQs
Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?
Absolutely! Just peel and slice about 4-5 fresh peaches and toss them with a bit of sugar before using.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the cobbler but bake it right before serving for that fresh-out-of-the-oven magic.
What if I don’t have baking powder?
You can substitute with baking soda, but you’ll need to add a bit of acid like vinegar or lemon juice for the right rise.
