Cooking steps
  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and allow it to melt in the preheating oven for 3–5 minutes, then remove carefully.

  2. 2

    In a large saucepan, combine the peaches with half the sugar (1/2 cup), lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and release juices, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk until just combined to form a batter—do not overmix for a tender crumb.

  4. 4

    Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the warm baking dish. Do not stir. Spoon the peach mixture (with juices) evenly over the batter; again, do not mix.

  5. 5

    Bake for 40–45 minutes until the crust rises, turns golden, and the juices are bubbling along the edges. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm.

Personalized Q&A
Q. What's the key ingredient in this recipe?
The star of Georgia Peach Cobbler is definitely the fresh peaches. They provide the dessert’s signature sweetness, juicy texture, and fragrant aroma, making the difference between an ordinary cobbler and a truly memorable Southern treat.
Q. Which part of the recipe gives the cobbler its signature golden crust?
The golden, buttery crust forms when the flour, sugar, baking powder, and milk batter is poured over melted butter and bakes undisturbed. The heat allows the crust to rise and brown beautifully atop the bubbling peaches.
Q. How do I keep the cobbler from becoming soggy?
To prevent sogginess, it's important to precook the peaches to release excess juice and always let the cobbler rest 15 minutes after baking. This allows the crust to finish setting and the peach juices to thicken slightly.
Q. How many calories and what is the main nutritional content per serving?
Each serving of this peach cobbler contains about 310 kcal. Carbohydrates are the main nutrient (54g, about 70% of the calories), with moderate fat (10g, 26%) and modest protein (3g, 4%).
