A warm, comforting peach cobbler featuring nutty brown butter and a crispy cinnamon sugar crust, perfect for summer gatherings and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 6–7 medium peaches)
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, browned
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar, for filling plus extra for sprinkling
  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) milk (whole or 2%)
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon (1 tsp in batter, 1 tsp for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter. Stir frequently as it foams and turns golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the peaches: Peel, pit, and slice peaches to yield about 6 cups. Toss with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Make the batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Add milk, vanilla extract, and cooled browned butter. Stir just until combined; batter will be slightly lumpy.
  5. Assemble the cobbler: Pour batter evenly into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish. Spoon peach mixture evenly over batter without stirring.
  6. Add cinnamon sugar crust: Mix 2 tablespoons granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over peach topping.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes until crust is golden brown and peach juices bubble.
  8. Cool for 10-15 minutes before serving to thicken juices.

Notes

Stir butter constantly when browning to avoid burning. Peeling peaches is optional but recommended for smoother texture. Do not overmix batter to keep crust tender. Toss peaches in flour to prevent soggy crust. Tent with foil if crust browns too quickly.
