This Skillet Peach Cobbler brings cozy magic to your table with a golden buttery crust and soft peaches bubbling beneath a tender biscuit topping. Made in one cast iron skillet, it tastes like summer afternoons at your grandmother’s house.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 6 medium peaches)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk (whole milk works best, but 2% is fine)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet in the oven while it preheats.
  2. In a bowl, toss sliced peaches with 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Let sit for about ten minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly pour in milk, stirring just until combined; do not overmix.
  4. Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Pour melted butter into the skillet and tilt to coat the bottom evenly.
  5. Pour the batter directly over the butter; do not stir. Spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter; do not stir.
  6. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges. Let cool for at least ten minutes before serving.

Notes

If the crust browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil for the last ten minutes. For frozen peaches, thaw and drain first. For gluten-free, use a cup-for-cup blend and add an extra tablespoon of milk. For dairy-free, use vegan butter and oat milk.
