Paula Deen Peach Cobbler Recipe
Peach cobbler is a warm and comforting dessert loved by many families. This Paula Deen Peach Cobbler Recipe is sweet, buttery and full of juicy peach flavor.
Ingredients
- 4 cups sliced peaches fresh or canned, drained
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray. This prevents sticking and helps the cobbler bake evenly.
Prepare the Peaches
- Place the sliced peaches in a mixing bowl. Add lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir gently so the peaches get coated with the sweet spice mixture.
Make the Batter
- In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and granulated sugar. Pour in the milk and vanilla extract. Whisk until the batter becomes smooth and lump-free.
Add the Butter
- Pour the melted butter into the greased baking dish. Spread it evenly on the bottom. Do not mix it with the batter yet.
Pour the Batter
- Slowly pour the prepared batter over the melted butter in the dish. Do not stir them together. The batter will rise around the peaches while baking.
Add the Peaches
- Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. Spread them gently across the surface. The batter will move around the peaches during baking.
Bake the Cobbler
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes. The top should become golden brown and slightly crisp while the peaches bubble underneath.
Cool and Serve
- Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. This helps the filling set slightly before serving warm.
Notes
- Use ripe fresh peaches for the best flavor.
- Canned peaches work well when fresh peaches are not available.
- Do not stir the butter and batter. This creates the classic cobbler texture.
- Add a little extra cinnamon for a warmer flavor.
- Let the cobbler rest before serving so the filling thickens slightly.
- Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
