Quick Peach Cobbler

Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh or frozen peaches, pitted and sliced into 1/2-inch wedges
• ½ cup sugar, divided
• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour, divided
• 6 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ cup whole milk

Instructions

1. 1

   Set the oven to 375°F and wait until the indicator light or beep tells you it has finished heating, about 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Pour the 4 cups of sliced peaches into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and sprinkle 1/4 cup of sugar over them, then stir gently until the peaches are coated.

3. 3

   In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar, and the baking powder until no lumps remain.

4. 4

   Add the 6 butter cubes to the flour mixture and use your fingertips to pinch and rub the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter visible throughout.

5. 5

   Pour the 1/2 cup of milk into the flour mixture and stir with a fork until a shaggy, thick batter forms with no visible dry flour.

6. 6

   Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches in irregular clumps, leaving some peaches showing—the topping does not need to cover everything.

7. 7

   Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the thickest part comes out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.

8. 8

   Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes so the peach filling can set slightly before serving.
