Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, line a sheet pan with parchment paper, then set aside.
If using fresh peaches, rinse and peel them with a vegetable peeler. Cut the peaches in half then remove the pits and slice them into ¼-inch slices.
In a large skillet add the fresh or frozen peaches, organic cane sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and water if using fresh peaches. Mix and cook on medium heat for 7-10 minutes or until the peaches have released most of their juices and are still very firm.
While the peaches are cooking, add butter to a pie dish. Melt the butter in the oven. Next in a small mixing bowl whisk together the all-purpose flour, cane sugar, baking powder, and salt. Then whisk in the milk. You should have a thick batter.
When the butter is melted, pour the cobbler topping into the warm pie pan. Spread out the batter, relatively evenly. Then pour the peach filling over the cobbler topping. Spread the peaches evenly over the cobbler topping.
Place the pie dish on the parchment paper-lined sheet pan to prevent spills in the oven.
Bake the peach cobbler in a 350F degree oven for 40 - 45 minutes, until the cobbler topping is a deep golden color and the peaches are tender.
Allow your peach cobbler to cool for 10 minutes, then serve with homemade vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
Notes
*Choose ripe but firm peaches, so they will hold their shape better without falling apart while baking. Storing. This peach cobbler can be stored in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap or inside an airtight container for 3-5 days. Reheat the cobbler in a 350-degree oven for 15 minutes or until warm and heated through.
