Creating the perfect Old Time Oven Peach Cobbler involves more than just mixing ingredients; it requires a careful layering technique that enhances both texture and flavor. Start by pouring the batter into a greased baking dish, ensuring an even layer that will serve as the base of your cobbler. Next, gently spoon the prepared peaches over the batter, but resist the urge to stir. This method allows the peaches to sit atop the batter, which is crucial for achieving that classic cobbler look and taste.

Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 8 medium peaches)

1 cup granulated sugar, divided

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup whole milk

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (for the batter)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Peaches: In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix gently to coat the peaches evenly. Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes so they can release some juices.

      Make the Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the milk, melted 1/2 cup butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

        Combine: Pour the batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter, including any juices. Do not stir; the batter will rise around the peaches as it bakes.

          Dot with Butter: Drizzle the tablespoon of melted unsalted butter over the top of the peach mixture for added richness and flavor.

            Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

              Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10-15 minutes. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
