Serving Size: 6

Cooking Time: 85 minutes

Ingredients

• 0.5 Cups (c) butter, melted
• 1 16 Ounces (oz) can sliced peaches, drained
• 1.25 Cups (c) white sugar, divided
• 1 Cup (c) self-rising flour
• 0.25 Teaspoons (tsp) ground cinnamon
• 0.125 Teaspoons (tsp) ground nutmeg
• 1 Cup (c) 2% milk

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place the butter in an 8x8-inch baking dish and let it melt in the oven as it preheats.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced peaches with their syrup and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour, 1 cup of sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Gradually stir in the milk until the mixture is just combined and moist.
4. Pour the batter into the preheated baking dish over the melted butter. Do not stir. Gently spoon the peach slices and most of the syrup over the batter, allowing the syrup to seep into the batter.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar evenly over the top of the cobbler. Continue baking for an additional 30 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
6. Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. For an extra indulgent treat, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy the rich, spiced flavors of this Southern classic!
