Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 28-ounce can peaches, undrained
- 3 cups sugar, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups water, divided
- 1 heaping tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Prepare Your Baking Setup: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour melted butter into a 9x13 baking dish, ensuring it coats the bottom and sides completely.
- Create the Peach Filling: Combine the canned peaches with their juice, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer.
- Thicken the Sauce: In a separate bowl, dissolve cornstarch in the remaining water. Stir this mixture into the simmering peaches and cook for about 3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Mix the Cobbler Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
- Layer Your Cobbler: Pour the prepared peach mixture over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir. Carefully spoon the flour mixture over the peaches, allowing it to spread naturally.
- Add the Final Touch: Combine the remaining sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cobbler.
- Bake to Perfection: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is beautifully golden brown and set.
