What you need to make a Peach Cobbler.
- Peaches. Use fresh peaches that have been peeled and sliced into medium thick slices.
- Lemon Juice. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is preferred.
- Flour. All purpose flour was used to make my cobbler.
- Sugar Alternative. Use a granular sugar alternative that can be baked with.
- Baking Powder. Added as a leavener and for a 'tart' balance.
- Ground Nutmeg and Ground Cinnamon. The spices that are added to make this recipe taste even better.
- Milk. Whole milk works best for moisture.
- Butter. Use real butter, rather than an alternative, as the flavor is important to this recipe. Also, if you are using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt to your dry ingredients.

How to make a Peach Cobbler.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Bake/Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour
Serving Size: 8-10
- Preheat your oven to 375 and prepare your baking dish as needed. I like to give mine a light spray of with nonstick for easy clean up.
- In a large bowl, use a whisk to combine together the flour, half of the sugar alternative, baking powder, and the spices (nutmeg and cinnamon). Then add the milk and and mix the ingredients until just combined.
- Next, place the butter in your baking dish and bake it while the oven is preheating. When the butter has melted you can take it out of the oven.
- When the butter has melted you can take it out of the oven and carefully distribute the dry ingredients from the large bowl over the butter, taking care not to mix the ingredients.
- Next, layer the dry ingredients in the baking dish first with your peaches, then the lemon juice, and lastly, the remaining sugar alternative.
- Bake your cobbler for 40-45 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and the crust is a nice golden brown. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. The toothpick should come out clean with only a few crumbs attached
Tips for making the best peach cobbler.
This recipe calls for fresh peaches that have been peeled and sliced. Feel free to use frozen peaches as long as peaches are the only ingredient in the package (ie. no added sugar).
More helpful tips for you.
- My cobbler is made with peaches. You can however use this recipe with other fruit such as blueberries, strawberries, or even rhubarb.
- When melting butter in the oven, if you allow the butter to brown a bit you will get a greater depth of flavor in your cobbler.
- While your cobbler is baking, it is a good idea to rotate it in the oven after about 20 minutes of baking. This will help for the cobbler to bake evenly.
- Bake this cobbler until the top is golden and there is bubbling of the ingredients. This should take about 40-45 minutes

I made this cobbler and had all the ingredients ready. When it came down to the directions it did not state where to add the 1 cup of milk. I added it to the dry ingredients and followed the directions after that. Needless to stay my cobbler didn’t look like the picture. I will try it again without the milk and see what happens. My family did like it but I felt bummed b cause it didn’t look like the picture.

So sorry to hear this. The milk gets added to the dry ingredients in the large bowl. It gets mixed until just combined. I hope that it turns out for you the next time that you try it. Thanks for your feedback!!
