Ingredients
  

For the Peaches
  • 2 (29 ounce) canned peach halves in syrup
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Cobbler Topping
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cut into cubes
  • 2/3 cup milk
Optional Garnish
  • vanilla ice cream for serving
  • whipped cream for serving

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • large bowl
  • mixing bowls
  • pastry blender or fingertips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. Drain the syrup from the canned peaches, reserving 1/4 cup of the syrup for later use.
Make the Peach Filling
  1. In a large bowl, combine the drained peaches, flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract.
  2. Gently mix until the peaches are evenly coated, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Prepare the Cobbler Topping
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add the milk and mix until a soft dough forms; be careful not to overmix.
Assemble and Bake
  1. Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping evenly over the peach mixture in the baking dish.
  2. Drizzle the reserved 1/4 cup peach syrup over the topping.
  3. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Serve
  1. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving; it is delicious on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

For an extra touch, you can add a pinch of ground ginger to the peach filling. If fresh peaches are in season, you can use about 6 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches instead of canned, increasing the sugar in the filling to 3/4 cup.
