How to Make Southern Peach Cobbler

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. 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.
  3. Toss to coat evenly and pour into a 2-quart baking dish.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes.
  5. 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.
  6. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Stir in 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Remove the peach filling from the oven. Drop spoonfuls of the topping evenly over the peaches.
  9. Sprinkle the entire cobbler with an additional 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
  10. Bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 30-35 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
