Classic Fresh Peach Cobbler, (enhanced with cinnamon and vanilla) is a simple, delicious Summer dessert, served with vanilla ice cream!
Who likes peach cobbler? We REALLY do! Every summer when big, juicy peaches are abundant, fresh, and ripe, I make at least one fresh peach cobbler! I love to go to U-pick farms and pick lots of fresh peaches, which I can then use to make cobblers, jam, canning pie filling, pies, muffins, or ice cream.
Last weekend, my husband and I got out of town and enjoyed a scenic drive through Oregon’s famous Columbia Gorge (Multnomah Falls, Columbia River, etc.).
One of our stops was a wonderful farm stand (off the beaten path), about 1½ hours from our home. We bought a flat of fresh picked large peaches, and some other goodies.
Once we got home, it was time to enjoy them! We ate several right out of the box (with juice dripping!), some will be canned to enjoy later, and others were used to make this delicious, fresh peach cobbler!

This cobbler tastes amazing, and I know you will enjoy it, too! I do not recommend using canned peaches… go for FRESH and RIPE, and you will not be disappointed!
Did I mention how easy it is to make this dessert? Yep. Probably the “hardest” thing you will need to do is peel and slice the peaches. Here’s how to make Fresh Peach Cobbler:
Make The Batter
Preheat the oven to 375°F. While it is preheating, make the batter for the cobbler. It’s a cinch! Sift flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl.
Pour in milk, and stir (or whisk) the ingredients together only until they’re fully combined (there might be a few small lumps… no worries!) This is the batter for your peach cobbler.
Add melted butter to a 9×13 baking dish (can also use a 7×12 pan). Pour the batter right on top of the melted butter, BUT DO NOT STIR IT IN. Set the baking dish aside while you prepare the fruit filling.
Make The Fresh Peach Cobbler Filling
Now it’s time to make the yummy peach filling. Place the peeled, sliced peaches, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon and sugar into a large saucepan. Give it a good stir, to combine ingredients, and then bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Stir the fruit filling constantly while it comes to a boil. Once it begins boiling, remove the pan from the heat.
Spoon or pour the peach filling evenly on top of the batter in the baking dish, BUT DO NOT STIR THEM IN! The peach filling will be sitting on top of the batter (which is sitting on top of the melted butter). That’s how it should be!
Butter first, batter second, and fruit last! As the fresh peach cobbler bakes, the batter will rise up (magically) and cover all those yummy peaches! Now your cobbler is ready to bake.
Bake The Fresh Peach Cobbler
Bake the fresh peach cobbler in a 375°F. oven for between 40-45 minutes. When done, the top of the cobbler will be nice and golden brown on top, and the filling should be bubbly around the edges of the baking dish. The smell is wonderful as the dessert bakes, by the way.
When done, carefully remove the hot cobbler from the oven. Transfer the dish to a wire rack to cool down slightly. It will be easier to serve, while it is still warm (but not totally hot).
You can even bake the cobbler ahead of time, if desired, and then just reheat each portion, if that is more convenient.
Ready To Eat!
When you’re ready to serve the warm fresh peach cobbler, grab a large serving spoon and dish it up into individual bowls or onto plates. By all means add some ice cream to top it off, if possible.
Enjoying peach cobbler with a big ol’ scoop of vanilla ice cream is a timeless, old-fashioned combination!
The incredible flavors of the cinnamon-vanilla flavored peach filling, along with the golden soft topping will make it hard to resist a second helping. This cobbler even tastes wonderful at room temperature!

Classic Fresh Peach Cobbler, (enhanced with cinnamon and vanilla) is a simple, delicious Summer dessert, served with vanilla ice cream!
- 6-8 large fresh, ripe peaches
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups granulated sugar (divided)
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 375°F. While oven preheats, make the batter. Sift flour, 1 CUP of sugar (save remaining 1 cup of sugar for peach filling), baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Pour in milk, and stir ingredients together only until they're combined (don't over-mix). Set aside.
Add melted butter to the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish (can also use a 7x12). Pour the batter on top of the melted butter, BUT DO NOT STIR IT. Set baking dish aside.
Place peach slices, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon and remaining 1 cup of sugar into a large saucepan. Stir to combine ingredients, then bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Once it begins boiling, remove pan from heat.
Spoon or pour peach filling evenly on top of the batter in baking dish, BUT DO NOT STIR IT. The peach filling sits on top of the batter, (which is sitting on top of the butter). As the cobbler bakes, the batter will rise up (magically) and cover the peaches!
Bake at 375°F. for 40-45 minutes. When done, the top of the cobbler should be nice and golden brown, and filling should be bubbly around the edges of the dish. Carefully remove cobbler from oven, and transfer pan to a wire rack, to let it cool slightly before serving. It's easier to dish it up warm (and not totally hot). Serve with vanilla ice cream, and enjoy!

Really tasty, but a little too sweet for our tastes and diets. Let me know if you come up with one with less sugar.
Will do, Carol. Yep… peach cobbler and diets is a funny concept, right? (wink, wink).
