Ingredients

  • 6 medium peaches, thinkly sliced, or 2 (10 oz) bags frozen peaches
  • 2/3 c packed brown sugar, divided
  • 3 T cornstarch
  • 2 t pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 t ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1 c all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 t baking powder
  • 3/4 t kosher salt
  • 1/2 c unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 c buttermilk
  • 1 T granulated sugar
  • 1 pint vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375.

In a 10-inch pie dish or ovenproof dish of any kind, combine the peaches, 1/3 cup of the brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Toss to combine and coat the peaches evenly.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, remaining brown sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Stir in the melted butter and buttermilk. Whisk until smooth.

Use a spatula to scrape the batter from the bowl on top of the peaches, covering them. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the topping is browned and the juices are bubbling around the edges of the pan.

In a small bowl, stir together the remaining cinnamon, sugar, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Remove the cobbler from the oven and immediately sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar on top. Let rest for 5 minutes, then scoop into bowls. Serve topped with ice cream, if desired.
