A quintessentially Southern dessert, this old-fashioned peach cobbler features juicy, caramelized fresh peaches seasoned with warm cinnamon, topped with a buttery, golden biscuit crust. This timeless treat offers the perfect balance of sweet summer fruit and a tender, warm pastry. Simple to prepare and deeply comforting, it is an ideal dessert for family gatherings, capturing the nostalgic essence of a homemade fruit bake without the need for complex techniques.

Ingredients

Scale

6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
0.5 cup whole milk

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine the sliced peaches with half a cup of sugar and the cinnamon in a large mixing bowl, tossing gently.
Transfer the peach mixture into a greased nine-by-nine inch baking dish.
Whisk the flour, remaining half cup of sugar, and baking powder in a separate large bowl.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour in the milk and stir until just combined into a thick batter.
Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the peach mixture in the baking dish.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.

Notes

If fresh peaches are out of season, you may substitute with frozen, thawed, and drained peach slices. Ensure the butter remains cold while cutting into the flour to achieve the lightest, flakiest biscuit texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
