Peach Cobbler for 6 Servings

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and salt.
2. Let the fruit mixture sit for 10 minutes to macerate and create a natural syrup.
3. Pour the fruit mixture into a 10-inch cast iron skillet or 9x9 baking dish, spreading the peaches into an even layer.
4. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl until no lumps remain.
5. Stir in the milk and melted butter until the batter is smooth but not over-mixed.
6. Pour the batter directly over the peaches without stirring to ensure the crust floats on top.
7. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes until the top is deep mahogany-gold and juices are bubbling.
8. Let the dish rest for 15 minutes before serving to allow the syrup to set.
