Course: Dessert, Snack, Treat
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 1 28-ounce can peach pie filling
  • 1 ½ cups fresh peaches sliced and pitted
  • 1 tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ stick butter melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 13×9-inch baking dish with melted butter.
Layer the peaches:
  1. Pour the canned peach pie filling into the prepared baking dish. Slice your fresh peaches, remove the pits, and layer them evenly over the pie filling. Sprinkle the brown sugar on top for extra sweetness and caramelization.
Prepare the batter:
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla extract. Slowly whisk in the milk until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
Assemble the cobbler:
  1. Pour the batter evenly over the peaches in the baking dish. Do not stir—the batter will bake into a golden, fluffy topping while the peaches bubble underneath.
Bake:
  1. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set.
Serve:
  1. Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Scoop into bowls and top with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate classic dessert.
  2. Enjoy!
