Description
A delicious peach cobbler with golden, flaky crust that comforts and delights.
Ingredients
- 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or frozen, thawed)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 store-bought pie crusts (or homemade)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar (for topping)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a deep 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
- In a saucepan, combine peaches, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch over medium heat. Cook until thickened and bubbly, about 8–10 minutes, then stir in butter and remove from heat.
- Roll out one crust to cover the bottom of the baking dish, pour in half of the peach filling, and add the second crust over the filling. Pour in the remaining peaches and finish with the final crust on top, crimping the edges.
- Brush the top crust with beaten egg, drizzle with melted butter, and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes until the top crust is golden and bubbling. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Use fresh peaches in season for the best flavor. Consider adding a splash of bourbon for a twist.
