For the Batter:

---|---|

How To Make Classic Peach Cobbler:
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Prepare the Peach Filling
In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 3/4 cup sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until the peaches are evenly coated. Set aside.
Step 3: Mix Dry Ingredients for Batter
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt.
Step 4: Add Milk and Butter
Gradually stir in the milk until combined, then mix in the melted butter. Stir until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 5: Assemble the Cobbler
Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. Do not stir—the batter will rise up around the peaches as it bakes.
Step 6: Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the perfect indulgent treat.
