Ingredients
  

Peach Filling
  • 6 cups fresh Georgia peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
Cobbler Topping
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 0.75 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, and 0.25 teaspoon salt. Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 0.25 cup sugar, baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoon salt. Stir in the milk and melted butter until just combined. The batter will be thick.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the peach filling. Do not spread it out; it will spread during baking.
  5. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
  6. Let the cobbler cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

For best results, use ripe but firm Georgia peaches. If fresh peaches are unavailable, you can substitute 4 (15-ounce) cans of sliced peaches, drained. This cobbler is best enjoyed the day it's made but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
