Ingredients

8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter melted
1½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups diced peaches (preferably fresh peaches)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Prepare a 8x8-inch baking dish and spray it with cooking spray.
Pour the melted butter into the prepared dish. Set aside for later.
In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, whole milk, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Mix with a whisk or wooden spoon until combined well and smooth. Pour this over the melted butter inside the baking dish.
* As you pour the batter on top of the butter, the butter might come up the sides and onto the top of the batter, and that's ok.
Gently drop the diced peaches on top of the cobbler batter.
Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and it's cooked through.
* Insert a toothpick into the middle of the cobbler topping to make sure it's cooked, and does not come out with wet batter.
Serve a scoop of peach cobbler topped with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream. You can also add some chopped pecans or walnuts if wanted.

Notes

Peaches : For best taste use fresh peaches. Canned peaches can be used if needed. Make sure the peaches are ripe before using. When a peach is ripe, the skin will easily peel right off with fingers or a knife. If you are having trouble peeling the skin off, place the peaches in boiling water for about 2 minutes. Let them cool slightly and then the skin will pull right off.

You will need about 3 peaches for this recipe. I usually add more than 2 cups of peaches, like 2 1/2 cups...
