Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh ripe peaches, peeled and sliced (about 600g / 1.3 lbs)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (65g)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (15ml)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (8g)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (85g), browned
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (125g)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk (180ml) (whole milk or any dairy/plant-based milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (120ml), whipped to soft peaks
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (15g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peach Filling (10 minutes): Peel and slice peaches into 1/2-inch thick slices. Toss with granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and flour. Stir gently to coat and set aside to macerate.
  2. Bake the Brown Butter (5 minutes): Melt unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently until it turns golden brown with a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. Mix the Cobbler Batter (5 minutes): In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add milk, vanilla extract, and cooled brown butter. Stir until just combined.
  4. Assemble the Cobbler (5 minutes): Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour peach mixture with juices into a 9-inch baking dish. Spoon batter evenly over peaches without stirring.
  5. Bake (35-40 minutes): Bake until topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. If browning too fast, tent with foil.
  6. Prepare Cinnamon Cream Topping (10 minutes): Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Chill until serving.
  7. Serve Warm: Let cobbler cool 10 minutes. Top each serving with a dollop of cinnamon cream.

Notes

Use a light-colored pan to brown butter to avoid burning. Blanch peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds then ice water to peel easily. Do not overmix batter to keep it tender. Cinnamon cream can be made ahead and chilled up to 4 hours. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and milk/cream with coconut milk/cream. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained.
