    Roasted Peach Cobbler - Full Recipe

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    Note - These photos were taken from the small batch version of this recipe.

    I love fruit desserts like apple crisp and pear tarts. But, when peach season rolls around, I want a warm peach cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It is one of my favorite desserts. However, most fresh peach cobbler recipes, including my best peach cobbler recipe, yield a runny peach filling, topped with a soggy crust. My Roasted Peach Cobbler fixes all that.

    Want to know the secret? I roast juicy fresh peaches with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a little sugar in the oven before assembling and baking the cobbler. This easy recipe comes out perfect every time, without a watery filling or soggy cobbler topping.

    Do you know the difference between a crisp, a cobbler, a betty, or a buckle? Learn all about it from the Farmer's Almanac.

    Ingredients and Substitutions

    The best part about this easy peach cobbler recipe is that it features fresh peaches as well as common pantry items you probably already have on hand. Some cobblers feature pie crust or biscuit topping. I prefer a batter type of cobbler topping, crispy on top, and soft underneath.

    Ingredients for Peach Cobbler on cutting board.
    • Peaches (fresh is best, but you can use drained canned peaches or frozen peaches and skip the roasting step)
    • Lemon juice (fresh)
    • Granulated white sugar (or brown sugar)
    • Ground cinnamon
    • Nutmeg (or a tiny pinch of ground ginger)
    • Butter
    • All-purpose flour
    • Baking powder
    • Salt
    • Eggs
    • Vanilla extract

    Full ingredients list & measurements are provided in the recipe card.

    Pro Tip

    The best way to reduce the juice in a peach cobbler is to first roast the sliced peaches in the oven with a little sugar sprinkled over the top. The idea is to let the juices release, reduce, and thicken in the oven. Toss the peaches with cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice (to prevent browning) before roasting them. The juice will reduce down to a thick syrup, while the peaches take on the cinnamon and nutmeg flavor. The oven-roasting method reduces the juice while the peaches soften slightly without becoming mushy. Add both the peaches and the thickened juice to your baking pan, top with the cobbler dough, bake and enjoy my Roasted Peach Cobbler.

    Equipment

    • Ungreased baking sheet
    • Small bowl
    • Electric mixer
    • Pastry cutter
    • Baking pan 9"x12"

    Ingredients
      

    For the peaches:

    • 6 cups sliced peaches fresh is best
    • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • ½ cup granulated sugar or brown sugar
    • 1.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • pinch of nutmeg optional

    For the batter:

    • ¾ cup butter softened
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon of salt
    • 3 eggs (slightly beaten)
    • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel and slice the peaches and place in a bowl. Toss with the lemon juice and pour out onto an ungreased baking sheet.
    • Sprinkle the ½ cup of sugar over the top, followed by the cinnamon and nutmeg.
    • Place the baking sheet, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven and roast until the peaches are soft (but not mushy) and the juice has thickened, approximately 25 minutes. Remove from the oven.
    • Using a spatula, remove the peaches and juice and place them in a 9" x 12" baking pan. Allow cooling to room temperature while you make the cobbler batter.
    • In a small bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the sugar and softened butter together until creamy.
    • Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix using a pastry to cut in the dry ingredients until they are pea sized.
    • Then add the slightly beaten eggs and vanilla. Beat just until combined. (Batter will be thick)
    • Dot the top of the peaches with small dollops of batter, covering most of the peaches.
    • Bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling.
    • Optional: Sprinkle coarse sanding sugar over the top of the batter while hot out of the oven.
    • Remove from oven and let stand to cool before serving. Garnish with whipped cream or serve with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
