Here’s a classic vintage oven-baked peach cobbler recipe that captures that old-fashioned charm:
Vintage Oven-Baked Peach Cobbler
Ingredients
For the filling:
- 6 cups fresh peaches, sliced (or 2 cans of sliced peaches, drained)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
For the topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice (if using). Mix gently until the peaches are well coated. Pour this mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Make the Topping: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the milk, stirring until just combined. Stir in the melted butter until well incorporated.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the topping mixture evenly over the peach filling. Do not stir; the topping will rise as it bakes.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
Tips
- For an extra touch, sprinkle some nutmeg or additional cinnamon over the topping before baking.
- You can substitute the peaches with other fruits like blueberries, blackberries, or a mix for a delicious twist!
Enjoy your delightful vintage peach cobbler!
