The ultimate Peach Cobbler with juicy sweet peaches and a crispy cinnamon cookie topping is delicious and surprisingly so easy to make! This post will cover everything you ever wanted to know about how to make Peach Cobbler, how to prepare the peaches, all my tips for the best cobbler, and even how to make it ahead of time. Let’s get started! The Best Peach Cobbler I know, I know. While everyone is searching for pumpkin spice or caramel apples, I’m here sharing just one more summer recipe. I thought I was finished with peaches after introducing Grilled Peaches and Peach Pie, but a visit to a peach orchard with a good friend left me with a huge box of peaches. Consequently, I spent a good part of last weekend testing Peach Cobblers with my boys. Although I initially planned to save the recipe we developed for next year, it’s too delightful not to share immediately, especially if you also have an abundance of peaches! However, if you’re done with peach season and moving on to apples or pumpkin, bookmark this Peach Cobbler recipe for next year. In the meantime, you might enjoy this Apple Fritter Bread or Pumpkin Cake recipe! Ingredients Filling Ingredients: Peaches: Provide natural sweetness and fruitiness. Lemon Juice: Balances sweetness with tartness. Brown Sugar & White Sugar: Sweeten the filling, with brown sugar adding richness. Cinnamon & Nutmeg: Offer warm, aromatic flavors.

Crumble Topping Ingredients: Butter: Brings richness and binds the topping. Flour: Creates the crumble’s structure. Baking Powder: Helps the crumble rise. Salt: Balances sweetness.

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch ceramic or glass pan. Do not use metal; it can cause the fruit to have a metallic flavor. FILLING: Prepare the peaches (SEE NOTE 1). Add chunks of peaches to a large bowl. Toss gently with lemon juice. Add in the dark brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, salt, and vanilla. Stir gently until combined and then transfer to the prepared pan along with any accumulated juices. Bake filling (without topping) for 10 minutes.CRUMBLE TOPPING: Melt the butter and allow plenty of time for it to come back to room temperature. If it is too hot, it will melt the sugar and make the topping greasy. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and vanilla; stir. Add the room temperature melted butter into the mixture and stir until just combined. Do not over-mix. Crumble with your fingers and sprinkle over the partially baked peaches. Do not press the crumble mixture down . Return to the oven for 35 more minutes.CRUNCHY TOPPING: In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly on top of the crumble topping. Return to the oven for 10 minutes. If desired, broil for 2-3 minutes on HIGH for a super-crisp topping. Remove from the oven and let stand for 20-30 minutes to thicken and gel. Serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla bean ice cream. (See Note 2.) Video Recipe NotesNOTE 1: Peach prep: Use a paring knife to cut off the skin; halve the peaches, remove the pit, and chop for this dessert. Briefly boil (blanch) the peaches: For unripe peaches: Using a paring knife, score a small "X" in the bottom of the peach and then place the peach in boiling water for about 60 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, remove the peach from the boiling water and place it in a large bowl filled with ice and cold water. As soon as the peach is cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to remove the softened skin (it should slide off pretty easily). For ripe peaches: Place the peach in boiling water for about 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, remove the peach from the boiling water and place it in a large bowl filled with ice and cold water. As soon as the peach is cool enough to handle, gently peel off the softened skin with your fingers. (It should slide right off.) Note 2: Broiling: Broiling the Peach Cobbler at the end of the baking time makes it crispy and crunchy. Use caution, though, depending on the type of pan you use. Some types are not suitable for the broiler.

This came out sooo good!! I also layered crumble topping on the bottom, then put filling, then layered with crumble topping on the top. Oh my goodness so so good. Reply
Best peach cobbler ever! I loved it the best fresh out of the oven, but still ate most of it over the next day or two. Couldn’t keep my kids out of it either. I loved the sugar broiled on top! Recipe well worth the effort! Reply
