Ingredients

For the Peach Filling:

4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or 4 cups canned peaches, drained)

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 tablespoons cornstarch

For the Cobbler Topping:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

3/4 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Sweet Glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare the Peach Filling:

- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches with sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cinnamon.

- Dust the mixture with cornstarch and stir gently until well combined.

- Transfer the peach mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

Make the Cobbler Topping:

- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

- Pour in the melted butter and milk, and add the vanilla extract. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

- Carefully dollop the cobbler topping over the peach filling in the baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it out gently, allowing some of the peach filling to peek through.

Bake the Cobbler:

- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cobbler comes out clean.

Prepare the Sweet Glaze:

- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if too thick or more powdered sugar if too thin.

Serve:

- Once the cobbler is done baking, allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. Drizzle the sweet glaze over the warm cobbler.

- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
