Step-by-Step Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or butter a 9×9-inch baking dish.
2️⃣ Melt the Butter:
Place the butter or margarine in the prepared baking dish and melt it in the oven as it preheats.
3️⃣ Make the Cobbler Batter:
While the butter melts, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly add the milk and stir until combined. The batter will be thick, but that’s okay!
4️⃣ Assemble the Cobbler:
Once the butter is melted, pour the cobbler batter over the butter in the baking dish—do not stir. The batter will rise to the top during baking.
5️⃣ Add the Peaches:
Carefully spoon the peaches evenly over the top of the batter. Again, do not stir.
6️⃣ Bake:
Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden and bubbly. The edges should be crisp, and a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
7️⃣ Serve:
Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. It’s best enjoyed warm, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream makes it even better!
Pro Tips for Lazy Man’s Pie Peach Cobbler:
- Use fresh peaches: If you have fresh peaches on hand, feel free to swap them in for the canned peaches. Just slice them thin and toss with a little sugar if they’re not sweet enough.
- Crispier crust: For a more golden, crispy topping, you can broil the cobbler for the last 1–2 minutes—just keep a close eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
- Spices: If you want a little extra warmth, try sprinkling in some cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter or the peaches.
