Ingredients

Units Scale

Peaches:

  • 2 bags Frozen peaches (20 ounces each)
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar (white sugar)
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon Almond extract (optional but recommended)
  • 1/2 tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 2 teaspoons Corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon Cream of tartar
  • 1/2 stick Butter, unsalted, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice

Cobbler topping:

  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar (white sugar)
  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon Cinnamon (reserve 1/2 for garnishment)
  • 1 stick Butter, unsalted, cold
  • 1/4 cup Boiling hot water (see notes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar to dust top of cobbler

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees: Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick spray. Add frozen peaches, sugars, extracts, spices, corn starch, cream of tartar, butter, water, and lemon juice. Mix well, cover with foil, and bake for 20 minutes.
  2. Prepare cobbler topping: Combine flour, sugars, baking powder, salt, and half of the cinnamon. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add hot water and stir until just combined.
  3. Assemble and bake: Spoon cobbler dough over cooked peaches. Sprinkle sugar-cinnamon mixture on top. Bake uncovered for 30-45 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

  • Ensure butter for cobbler topping is cold for best results.
  • Leave small spaces between dough droplets for even cooking.
