That sounds like a classic easy peach cobbler—the kind of dessert that gets requested again and again because it uses simple pantry ingredients. Here’s a version using butter, sugar, and flour with minimal prep:
Easy 5-Minute Peach Cobbler
Ingredients
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups sliced peaches (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Pour melted butter into a baking dish (about 9×13 inches).
- In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, milk, and vanilla until just combined.
- Pour the batter over the melted butter without stirring.
- Place peaches evenly over the batter.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
- Bake for 40–50 minutes, until golden and bubbling.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Serving idea
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream—the melted butter, sweet peaches, and soft cake-like topping are what make this dessert disappear so quickly at gatherings.
