Ingredients:
- 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
- 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp (10g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup (180ml) whole milk
- 1 pint (473ml) vanilla bean ice cream
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Stir gently until the fruit is evenly coated.
- Pour the peach mixture into a 9x9 inch baking dish or cast iron skillet, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until no clumps remain.
- Pour in the melted butter and milk. Stir with a spatula just until the flour disappears, leaving a few small lumps for a tenderer crust.
- Pour the batter over the peaches and use a spatula to spread it toward the edges of the dish.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35-45 minutes until the crust is a deep mahogany color and the filling is bubbling up the sides.
- Remove from the oven and let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and a garnish of fresh mint leaves.
