Y’all, let me tell you about a recipe that’s been passed down in my family for generations – my grandmother’s heavenly Southern Peach Cobbler with Butter Pecan Ice Cream! This isn’t just any ordinary dessert; it’s a slice of Southern comfort that’ll make your taste buds do the happy dance! 🍑
Listen, honey, I know we’re all busy, but trust me when I say this recipe is worth every minute in the kitchen. The combination of juicy, fresh peaches, buttery crust, and that warm cinnamon-sugar mixture is absolutely divine!
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 8 ripe peaches (and yes, the riper, the better!)
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 cup brown sugar (packed with love)
– 1½ cups self-rising flour
– 1½ sticks of butter (don’t you dare use margarine!)
– Ground cinnamon
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– ½ cup water
– Pinch of salt
Now, let me walk you through this magic:
1. First things first, preheat that oven to 375°F. While it’s heating up, slice those peaches – and don’t worry about peeling them unless you’re feeling fancy!
1. In a large pot, combine your sliced peaches, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Your kitchen will smell like heaven, I promise!

1. Melt that butter in a 9×13 baking dish right in the oven. Be careful not to burn it – we’re not trying to make brown butter today!
1. Mix your flour, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Slowly stir in vanilla extract and enough water to make a batter that’s not too thick, not too thin – just right, like Goldilocks would want!
1. Pour this batter over the melted butter. DON’T STIR! I repeat, don’t stir! Trust the process, sugar!
1. Now, spoon those warm peaches over the batter (again, no stirring!). Sprinkle with cinnamon to your heart’s content.
1. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy. The batter will rise up and hug those peaches like they’re long-lost friends!
Serve this beauty warm with a generous scoop of butter pecan ice cream, and watch as your family fights over the last piece!
