Ingredients
  

For the cobbler
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick) Adds richness and flavor to the cobbler.
  • 1 cup self-rising flour Contains leavening agent for a light and fluffy topping.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar Adds sweetness; consider a sugar substitute for a healthier option.
  • 1 cup whole milk Provides moisture; can replace with almond or skim milk for lower calories.
  • 29 oz canned sliced peaches in heavy syrup (1 large can, undrained) Canned peaches are convenient; opt for peaches canned in juice for a healthier version.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Optional; adds flavor and antioxidants.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the stick of butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and put it in the oven to melt completely.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the self-rising flour, sugar, and milk. Whisk until the batter is smooth.
  4. Once the butter is melted, carefully remove the hot dish from the oven and pour the prepared batter directly over the melted butter without stirring.
  5. Spoon the undrained canned peaches evenly over the batter.
  6. If desired, sprinkle a little cinnamon over the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  2. Let the cobbler cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Consider substituting granulated sugar with a natural sweetener for a healthier version. Store leftover cobbler in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. It can also be frozen for up to three months.
