Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine drained peaches, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.

Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly with the sugar and spices.

Tip: Taste the peaches before adding sugar to ensure the sweetness is balanced.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

The batter will be slightly thick but pourable.

Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Spoon the batter evenly over the peaches. Do not stir; the batter will spread and rise during baking.

Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.

Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Drizzle with caramel sauce for added indulgence.

Sprinkle with chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
