Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 600 grams)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (150 grams)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (50 grams)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (125 grams)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk (180 ml), whole or 2%
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (85 grams), browned
  • 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml), cold
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel and slice about 4 cups (600 grams) of peaches. To peel easily, dip them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then shock in ice water to slip off the skin.
  2. Toss the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar and 1/4 cup (50 grams) brown sugar in a bowl. Let sit for 10 minutes to macerate and release juices.
  3. Melt 6 tablespoons (85 grams) unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Stir frequently as the butter foams and browns, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir to blend.
  5. Gradually whisk in 3/4 cup (180 ml) milk and the browned butter until the batter is smooth and slightly thick but pourable. Set aside.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Pour the peach mixture with juices into a greased 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) baking dish. Dollop and gently smooth the batter evenly over the peaches without stirring.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the batter comes out clean. The peach juices should be bubbling around the edges.
  9. While baking, chill a mixing bowl and beaters for 10 minutes. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) cold heavy cream into the bowl.
  10. Add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if using. Whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Do not overbeat.
  11. Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes after baking. Serve warm with a generous dollop of cinnamon cream topping.

Notes

Use a light-colored pan for browning butter to monitor color changes. Chill bowl and beaters for easier whipping of cream. Tent cobbler with foil if topping browns too quickly. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed overnight and drained. For gluten-free, substitute flour with a 1:1 gluten-free blend. For dairy-free, use coconut oil for browning, almond or oat milk, and coconut cream whipped with maple syrup and cinnamon.
