Ingredients
Cobbler Batter
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Non-stick baking spray (for greasing)
Strawberry Peach Filling
- 2 cups peaches, sliced
- 2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Collect all ingredients needed for the cobbler to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease the baking pan using non-stick baking spray to prevent sticking.
- Melt Butter in Pan: Place the measured 1/2 cup of butter directly into the baking pan and put it in the oven to melt while preparing the batter.
- Make the Cobbler Batter: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon, then mix thoroughly to form a smooth batter.
- Pour Batter Over Butter: Remove the baking pan with melted butter from the oven, carefully pour the cobbler batter over the melted butter without stirring. This layering creates the perfect texture contrast.
- Prepare the Fruit Filling: In another bowl, combine the 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup flour, salt, and cinnamon. Add the sliced strawberries and peaches to this mixture and toss gently until all fruit pieces are evenly coated.
- Arrange Fruit Over Batter: Spread the coated strawberry and peach slices evenly over the cobbler batter in a single layer to ensure uniform baking.
- Bake Cobbler: Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to let the juices thicken and avoid burns.
Notes
- You can substitute fresh peaches and strawberries with frozen ones, but make sure to thaw and drain excess liquid before use.
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an irresistible dessert experience.
- To check doneness, look for a golden crust and bubbling fruit juices at the edges.
