Ingredients
- 8 fresh peaches (960g) – peeled, pitted and sliced into thin wedges
- 60g white sugar
- 60g brown sugar
- 25ml ground cinnamon
- 625ml ground nutmeg
- 5ml fresh lemon juice
- 10ml cornstarch
- 120g all-purpose flour
- 60g white sugar
- 60g brown sugar
- 5ml baking powder
- 5ml salt
- 85g unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
- 60ml boiling water
- 45g white sugar
- 5ml ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Collect all necessary items.
- Set your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) to preheat.
- In a sizable bowl, mix the peach slices with 60g white sugar, 60g brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Ensure everything is evenly coated, then transfer to a 2-quart baking dish. Place in the hot oven for a 10-minute bake.
- While the peaches are baking, in a different large bowl, blend together the flour, 60g white sugar, 60g brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to incorporate the chilled butter until the mixture has a crumbly texture. Gently mix in the boiling water until just combined.
- After removing the peaches from the oven, place spoonfuls of the prepared topping evenly over them.
- In a small bowl, combine 45g white sugar and ground cinnamon, then sprinkle this mixture over the entire cobbler.
- Continue baking in the preheated oven until the topping turns golden, which should take around 30 minutes.
Notes
- Evenly coat peach slices with sugar, spices, lemon juice, and cornstarch for a balanced cobbler flavor.
- Use chilled butter in the topping for a golden, crumbly texture.
- Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture over the cobbler before baking for a sweet, spiced finish.
