Ingredients
Fruit
- 1 can peaches (420 grams)
Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup milk
Butter
- 1 stick unsalted butter (around 113 grams)
Instructions
- Melt the butter: Place the stick of unsalted butter in a baking dish (approximately 9×13 inches) and put it into the oven as it preheats until the butter is fully melted. Alternatively, if the dish is microwave-safe, melt the butter in the microwave for a few seconds. Remove from heat.
- Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and ground cinnamon. Pour in the milk and mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Pour batter over butter: Slowly pour the prepared batter over the melted butter in the baking dish, ensuring an even layer.
- Add peaches: Gently spoon the canned peaches along with their syrup evenly over the batter. Do not stir or mix; the batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.
- Bake: Place the dish in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the batter comes out clean.
- Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally topped with a dollop of ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of ground cinnamon to your taste or omit it if preferred.
- Using canned peaches in syrup adds extra sweetness; if using peaches packed in juice, consider adding a little extra sugar to the batter.
- Be careful not to mix the batter and peaches after adding the peaches to maintain the cobbler’s texture.
- For a crispier top, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes at the end of baking, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
