3 Videos | Photo: The Lady and Sons Peach Cobbler Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 (28-ounce) can sliced peaches in heavy syrup, un-drained (use fresh peaches if available; see note*)
- Cinnamon, for sprinkling, optional
- Vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream, for serving
Directions
*If they are available, by all means use fresh peaches. In a saucepan, mix 2 cups fresh peach slices with one cup sugar and one cup water. Bring the mixture to a boil and then simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir often, making sure the sugar is completely dissolved. Substitute this for the canned peaches.
*Cook's Note: The most important part of this dish is not stirring the mixture.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Put butter in a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish and place in the oven to melt. Stir sugar and flour together and mix well. Slowly add milk and continue stirring to prevent the batter from lumping.
Being careful not to burn yourself, remove hot baking dish containing melted butter from oven; pour batter directly over butter in baking dish. Do not stir.
Spoon fruit on top of batter, then gently pour syrup on top. Do not stir. Sprinkle cinnamon on top of batter, if using. (The most important part of this dish is not stirring the mixture at this point in the recipe.)
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Your batter will rise above your fruit, producing the most wonderful of crusts. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.

My family and friends love this recipe. Every time I have made it, it's been gone within one hour because everyone just can't get enough of it. In fact, I am lucky if I get a little at all : Thanks, Paula, for your amazing recipes that my family just can't get enough of!

I made this dish for Thanksgiving and it was a success. I made a few changes though. The recipe seemed to have to much liquid. I did not add a full cup of milk and I did not add all of the liquid from the peaches. It would have been way too soupy. I added enough milk for my mixture to have the consistency of pancake batter. I also added cinnamon to the batter mixture for flavor.

Easy and delicious. I added a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter to give it more flavor.
