Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a similar oven-safe pan.

2. Prepare the Peach Filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained peaches, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Mix gently to coat the peaches evenly with the dry ingredients.
Spread the peach mixture evenly into the greased baking dish.

3. Make the Cobbler Topping

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.
Add the buttermilk and egg yolk, stirring gently until combined.
Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Assemble the Cobbler

Crumble the cobbler topping over the peach filling, leaving a few areas exposed for a classic cobbler look.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the topping for added crunch and sweetness.

5. Bake the Cobbler

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.

6. Cool and Serve

Allow the cobbler to cool for 10–15 minutes.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or enjoy it plain.

Notes

Buttermilk Substitute: If you don’t have buttermilk, make a quick version by combining ¼ cup of milk with ½ tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
Texture: For a crunchier topping, sprinkle coarse sugar instead of granulated sugar before baking.
Peach Options: You can substitute canned peaches with fresh or frozen peaches. Adjust sugar based on their sweetness.
Make Ahead: You can prepare the filling and topping separately in advance and assemble just before baking.
