Ingredients
  

Fruit base
  • 2 cup fresh peaches, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 0.25 cup sugar
Cobbler batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup sugar
  • 0.5 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Preheat and prepare the fruit
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and place a sheet pan on the middle rack to heat while you assemble the dish.
  2. Toss peaches and blueberries with 1/4 cup sugar, then spread them evenly in a baking dish.
Mix batter and assemble
  1. Mix all-purpose flour, remaining sugar, and baking powder in a bowl until evenly combined.
  2. Whisk whole milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract together, then pour into the dry ingredients and mix just until smooth.
  3. Pour batter over the fruit in an even layer without stirring so the fruit bubbles up during baking.
Bake and finish
  1. Bake at 375°F for 40-45 minutes, until golden and bubbling around the edges.
  2. Cool for 10 minutes before serving so the cobbler sets slightly.

Notes

For extra brightness, add lemon zest to the fruit before spreading it in the dish. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days; reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm in a 325°F oven until heated through. Freezing isn’t recommended for best crust texture. For a lighter option, use plant-based butter instead of butter and choose unsweetened vanilla oat milk in a 1:1 swap.
