Instructions:
- Preheat the oven: to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the peaches:
- If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them. If using canned peaches, drain them well.
- In a medium bowl, toss the peaches with 1 cup of granulated sugar (and brown sugar if using), cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Set aside.
- Make the batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Add the milk to the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
- Assemble the cobbler:
- Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Pour the batter over the butter without stirring.
- Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. The batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.
- Bake the cobbler:
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
- Serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. It’s delicious on its own, but even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
