Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy peaches: The quality of your peaches will greatly impact the flavor of your cobbler, so be sure to select ripe, juicy ones. Look for peaches that are fragrant and have a slight give when you press them gently.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough, so be sure to mix it just until it comes together. Use your hands or a pastry blender to mix the dry ingredients and butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then, add the milk or buttermilk and mix just until the dough comes together.
  • Don't overcook the cobbler: The cobbler is done when the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Overcooking will make the crust tough and the filling dry.
  • Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream: Peach cobbler is best served warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream. You can also top it with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg.

Conclusion:

Peach cobbler is a classic American dessert that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet, juicy peaches and flaky crust, peach cobbler is a delicious and satisfying treat that everyone will love.
