Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
-
Fresh or frozen peaches (peeled and sliced)
-
Fresh or frozen raspberries
-
Granulated sugar
-
Lemon juice
-
Cornstarch
-
All-purpose flour
-
Baking powder
-
Salt
-
Milk
-
Butter (melted)
-
Optional: cinnamon or nutmeg for added spice
Directions
-
I preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish or similar-sized oven-safe pan.
-
In a large bowl, I toss the sliced peaches and raspberries with sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. This helps create a thick, sweet filling.
-
I pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
-
In another bowl, I whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and a touch more sugar if I want a sweeter topping.
-
I stir in the milk and melted butter until a thick batter forms.
-
I drop spoonfuls of the batter over the fruit, spreading it gently without completely covering the filling—some gaps are fine.
-
I bake the cobbler for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden and cooked through and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
-
I let it cool for at least 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to thicken.
Servings and timing
This cobbler serves 6 to 8 people. It takes about 15 minutes to prep and 40–45 minutes to bake, with a short cooling time before serving.
Variations
Sometimes I add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the fruit for a warmer flavor. I’ve also made it with a mix of peaches, raspberries, and blueberries for a triple-berry twist. For a slightly crispier topping, I sprinkle a little sugar on the batter before baking. And when I want a shortcut, I use store-bought biscuit mix for the topping.
storage/reheating
I store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, I warm a portion in the microwave for 30–40 seconds or in a 350°F oven until heated through. It also tastes great cold, especially with a spoonful of whipped cream or vanilla yogurt.
FAQs
Can I use canned fruit for this cobbler?
Yes, I’ve used canned peaches in a pinch. I drain them well and reduce the added sugar slightly, since they’re already sweetened.
Do I need to thaw frozen fruit?
If I use frozen fruit, I don’t usually thaw it—just add a few extra minutes to the baking time and watch for bubbling edges.
How do I know when the cobbler is done?
The topping should be golden brown and firm to the touch, and the fruit filling should be bubbling around the edges.
Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Yes, I use a gluten-free flour blend in place of regular flour with good results. The texture stays soft and satisfying.
What’s the best way to serve cobbler?
I love serving it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream—it melts into the cobbler and adds an extra touch of indulgence.
Conclusion
Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler is one of those comforting, crowd-pleasing desserts that I turn to again and again. It’s simple to prepare, loaded with fresh fruit flavor, and finished with a soft, golden topping that soaks up all that sweet, tangy juice. Whether I’m baking it for a weekend treat or a holiday meal, this cobbler always brings warmth and joy to the table.
