Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh ripe peaches, peeled and sliced (about 600g / 1.3 lbs)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (50g)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (190g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, browned and slightly cooled (85g / 0.375 cup)
  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk (180ml / 0.75 cup) (substitute: milk + 1 teaspoon vinegar or lemon juice)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brown Butter: Place the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently. After 4-5 minutes, when the butter foams and turns golden brown with a nutty aroma, remove from heat immediately. Pour into a small bowl and let cool slightly.
  2. Make the Peach Filling: In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently to coat evenly. Set aside to marinate.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Set oven to 375°F (190°C).
  4. Mix the Biscuit Topping Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Add Wet Ingredients to Topping: Pour the slightly cooled brown butter into the dry ingredients, then add cold buttermilk. Stir gently with a spatula just until combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the peach filling into a 9-inch square baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit topping evenly over the peaches.
  7. Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Peach juices should be bubbling.
  8. Cool Slightly Before Serving: Let rest for 10-15 minutes to thicken the juices before serving.

Notes

Use medium heat and stir constantly when browning butter to avoid burning. If topping browns too quickly, tent with foil after 25 minutes. For gluten-free, substitute flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend. For dairy-free, use browned coconut oil instead of butter and coconut or almond milk for buttermilk substitute. Fresh peaches are best; if using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid.
