A classic, easy-to-make peach cobbler featuring juicy peaches under a golden, buttery biscuit topping. Perfect for family gatherings or cozy nights, this recipe balances sweet and tangy flavors with a nostalgic Southern charm.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine peeled and sliced peaches with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Stir gently and let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading evenly. Drain excess liquid if necessary.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until just combined.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit batter over the peach filling.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the biscuit layer comes out clean.
  7. Cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

If topping browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil halfway through baking. Use ripe peaches for best flavor and adjust sugar if peaches are very sweet. For vegan or gluten-free versions, substitute ingredients as noted in variations. Let peach mixture sit before baking to meld flavors and dissolve sugar.
