How to Make Southern Peach Cobbler
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine 6 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
- Toss to coat evenly and pour into a 2-quart baking dish.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a separate large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Remove the peach filling from the oven. Drop spoonfuls of the topping evenly over the peaches.
- Sprinkle the entire cobbler with an additional 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 30-35 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
