Southern Peach Cobbler made from fresh peaches and topped with a single lattice pie crust.
There's not much sweeter than fresh summertime peaches. This easy recipe for peach cobbler is a must have summer dessert. The fresh peaches are cooked on the stovetop until tender, then transferred to a baking dish where they are topped with a pie-crust.
This peach cobbler was the first dessert recipe I published back in 2014. I still love the combination of the peaches and pie crust to this day.
Ingredients
- Peaches - Recipe uses 8 cups fresh peaches that are peeled, pitted and sliced.
- Sugar - One cup granulated sugar. You can add more sugar if your peaches aren't very sweet.
- All-Purpose Flour - for thickening the peach mixture.
- Nutmeg
- Vanilla Extract
- Butter
- Pie Crust - One single pie crust.
How to make peach cobbler
- Combine peaches, sugar, flour and nutmeg in a Dutch-oven. Set aside until a syrup starts to form (~3 minutes).
- Heat peach mixture over medium-low heat until it starts to boil. Reduce heat to low and cook peaches for approximately 10 minutes or until peaches are tender. Remove peaches from heat and stir in vanilla and butter.
- Transfer peaches to a baking dish. Top with pie crust cut into 1" wide strips. Arrange in lattice design over peaches.
- Bake at 450F for 12- 15 minutes or until crust is lightly browned.
Note: Roll the pie crust out nice and thin if you like it crisper. If you like it soft, roll it a little thicker. I had a little bit of dough left over from one pie crust.
Serving
Let cool slightly before serving. Serve Southern Peach Cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious pairing. We are partial to Homemade Vanilla from Bluebell around here.
