Ingredients
- 4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches (blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds to remove the skins)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 cup flour

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

- 2/3 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar, for topping
- Whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Generously butter a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish. Place the sliced peaches in the dish and sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and flour. Mix gently and spread evenly again. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile combine all dry ingredients for cobbler crust in a bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers, to make the texture like coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and stir to form a soft dough.

Good recipe! I really like the step of “par baking” the peaches. I also thought it was a touch too sweet and I even decreased the sugar in the batter. Next time won’t sprinkle the additional brown sugar on top.
I make this cobbler every time I have family over and I have little to nothing of it. Everyone loves it and now I have to double the recipe to feed everyone.
What I like most about this cobbler was the topping. It was easy to put together and it cooked up nice and fluffy like a light cake. I used peaches we had frozen from our tree in the backyard and I had to defrost them in order to separate the slices. So the peaches were a bit wet even though I dried them. It made a lot of liquid so I would have added more flour than the 1 tablespoon in my situation to thicken it. The peaches I used were not particularly sweet but the amount of sugar in this recipe was fine. If you are starting out with very sweet peaches then you can cut back on sugar, this is common practice with using fruit. Changing out the peaches for any fruit I would imagine would be just as good.
this is the worst peach cobbler I have ever made don’t wast your time
This has been my go-to for a while now. Super simple and turns out great AS IS. Makes me crazy when people rate a recipe 5 stars and then add all of the changes they made when making it. That = not the same recipe! 🙂
I created an account JUST so that I could review this recipe. This peach cobbler was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and all of my guests agreed. The first bite nearly brought me to my knees! I’m keeping this recipe forever and it will now be my new favorite dish to bring to events. The only modification I did was to add some ground ginger. Be sure to use fresh peaches, serve warm and top with homemade whipped cream! TO DIE FOR!!!
After reading the most recent reviews, the recipe might look like this:
Ingredients
Cobbler filling:
4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches (blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds to remove the skins
1 cup blueberries (or more? — this would make this recipe a “Blueberry – Peach Cobbler
3/8 cup brown sugar (i.e. 6 tablespoons of brown sugar — I don’t agree with using white sugar — consider using natural sugar cane
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (or mace pepper if you’re daring
1 teaspoon almond extract (no vanilla
1 tablespoon flour
Cobbler crust:
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2/3 cup buttermilk
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
(and, I top the crust with 1/3 cup instant oatmeal
Whipped cream
Yuk! I had to throw this away. Even while I was putting this together I thought that it had waaay too much sugar…all brown sugar nonetheless. Would throw anyone into diabetic shock. I’m going to try this again with modifications: white, not brown sugar in the batter and reduce by half. Brown sugar, reduce by 25% and halve the remainder 1/2 white, 1/2 brown sugar. No sugar sprinkled on top. Also, the fruit has to be tossed with the flower and cinnamon. Use half as much cinnamon as recipe calls for. No vanilla! If you want to enhance the flavor of peaches, add a few drops of almond extract, not vanilla. Oh, hell, just use a different recipe.
Very good !! I sprinkled nutmeg in just before you stir mixture.. My family was crazy about this dessert! Yummy!! Use fresh peaches !!
My visiting family went peach picking so we were looking for recipes. Came across this one and gave it a try. I did a 1 1/2 times recipe for the size of the baking dish I have. The only thing I used different was dry buttermilk. The ratios worked out beautifully for me. The dough browned up nicely, it was soft against the peaches..it was delicious! I made some fresh whipped cream, which melted into the cobbler…it didn’t last very long! I will make this recipe again!
