There's just somethin' about a homemade cobbler that screams summer, y'know? Maybe it's the way the sweet aroma fills the kitchen, or the sight of those golden-brown bubbles peeking through the fruit. For me, it always brings back memories of my grandma's kitchen, the place where I first fell in love with baking. This peach cobbler with a cornmeal crust is my take on that classic, with a touch of rustic charm. It's not fussy, it's not perfect, but it's packed with flavor and love. I remember once I tried to make this for a potluck, but I forgot the sugar! It was a disaster and everyone laughed, but it’s a fun memory now.
Looking for the perfect dessert to impress your friends and family, but still want that easy to make home feelin'? Look no further. This cobbler will bring warmth to your hearts, and full bellies. What are you waiting for?
What sets this cobbler apart is the cornmeal crust. It adds a subtle sweetness and a delightful, slightly gritty texture that pairs perfectly with the juicy, ripe peaches. Don't be intimidated by the idea of making a crust; this one is incredibly easy to whip up. I mean, if I can do it, ANYONE can. Trust me. I’m not exactly a baking pro, lets just say my first attempt at making bread resulted in something that could be used as a doorstop, haha! This recipe is very forgiving. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to create a dessert that will transport you to a simpler, sweeter time. Its that good. I promise.
Oh, and, my one piece of advice? Don't skimp on the vanilla extract. It adds a touch of magic that really elevates the flavor of the cobbler.

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- **Get Started:** Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the cobbler bakes evenly from the start. Next, lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish. A little butter or cooking spray works wonders to prevent sticking.
- **Prepare the Peaches:** In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently toss everything together to coat the peaches evenly. The lemon juice helps to brighten the flavors and prevent the peaches from browning. Set this aside for now.
- **Make the Cornmeal Crust:** In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make sure all the dry ingredients are well combined for a consistent crust.
- **Add Wet Ingredients to Crust:** Add the melted butter and milk to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; avoid overmixing to keep the crust tender.
- **Assemble the Cobbler:** Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Drop spoonfuls of the cornmeal batter over the peaches. Don't worry about covering every single peach; the rustic look is part of the charm.
- **Bake the Cobbler:** Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling. Keep an eye on it towards the end to prevent the crust from burning.
- **Cool and Serve:** Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to thicken slightly and prevents you from burning your tongue (trust me, I've been there!). Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
📝 Notes
- Feel free to use frozen peaches if fresh ones aren't available. Just make sure to thaw them slightly and drain any excess liquid.
- Add a splash of almond extract to the peach filling for an extra layer of flavor.
- For a richer crust, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
