1 / 4 cup (56 g) unsalted butter

1 tbsp (15 ml) baking powder

1 cup (240 ml) milk
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
Ground cinnamon to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare Peaches: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a saucepan, combine the sliced peaches, half a cup of sugar, and a tablespoon of butter. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the peaches soften slightly, about 5 minutes.
   
2. Make Batter and Assemble: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the milk and vanilla extract, stirring until you have a smooth batter. Melt the remaining butter in an 8x8 inch baking dish in the preheated oven. Pour the batter over the melted butter without stirring, then spoon the peach mixture evenly over the batter. Do not mix. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.

3. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until the cobbler topping is golden brown and cooked through. Let cool slightly before serving warm, possibly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
