Ingredients
  

For the Peach Filling:

6 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon cornstarch (for thickening)

For the Cobbler Topping:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

For the Sweet Glaze:

1/2 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons milk

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peach Filling:

    - In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and cornstarch. Toss the mixture gently to coat the peaches evenly. Allow it to sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the juices combine.

      Preheat the Oven:

        - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the topping.

          Make the Cobbler Topping:

            - In another bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract (if using) until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

              Assemble the Cobbler:

                - Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour the peach filling evenly into the bottom of the dish. Spoon the cobbler topping over the peaches; it’s okay if it doesn’t cover them completely.

                  Bake:

                    - Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                      Prepare the Sweet Glaze:

                        - While the cobbler is baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more milk or sugar if needed.

                          Finish and Serve:

                            - Once the cobbler is baked and golden, remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Drizzle the sweet glaze over the warm cobbler before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
