Print Recipe

A warm, golden peach cobbler with a sticky, sweet, buttery biscuit topping enhanced by honey for a cozy, comforting dessert perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 600g)
  • 3 tablespoons honey (local wildflower honey recommended)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for filling)
  • Pinch of salt (for filling)
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (160g, for biscuit topping)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for biscuit topping)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (for biscuit topping)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed (85g)
  • 3/4 cup whole milk (180ml)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peach Filling (10 minutes): In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches with honey, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt, and flour. Toss gently until peaches are evenly coated. Set aside to macerate.
  2. Make the Biscuit Dough (15 minutes): In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add cold, cubed butter and cut into flour mixture with a pastry cutter or fork until coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits remain.
  3. Add Milk and Form Dough: Pour in whole milk and stir just until dough comes together. Avoid overmixing.
  4. Assemble the Cobbler (5 minutes): Pour peach filling into a 9-inch square baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over peaches, leaving some gaps for steam.
  5. Bake (35-40 minutes): Bake at 375°F (190°C) until biscuit topping is golden brown and peach filling bubbles at edges. Tent with foil if biscuits brown too quickly.
  6. Cool Slightly Before Serving (10 minutes): Let cobbler rest on a cooling rack to thicken filling and make serving easier.

Notes

Use cold butter for flaky biscuit topping. If peaches are very juicy, sprinkle extra flour before adding biscuit dough to prevent runny filling. Tent with foil if biscuits brown too quickly. Peeling peaches by blanching helps remove skins easily. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and milk with almond or oat milk; swap honey for maple syrup for vegan option.
