Preheat and prep
Preheat your oven to 190°C / 375°F. Lightly grease a baking dish. Nothing fancy required.
Make the peach filling
In a bowl, mix peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and vanilla. Stir gently until coated. Pour into the baking dish and spread evenly.
Mix the topping
In another bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk and melted butter, then stir until smooth. It’ll look like thick pancake batter—that’s perfect.
Assemble
Spoon the batter over the peaches. Don’t worry about covering everything. Cobbler is rustic, not controlling.
Bake
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes until the top is golden and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges. Your kitchen will smell unreal.
Cool slightly
Let it cool for 10–15 minutes. This helps the filling thicken and saves your tongue from regret.
