Peach cobbler is a traditional dessert that is made with peaches, a sweetened biscuit-like topping, and often spiced with cinnamon or nutmeg. The dish is typically baked in a large dish or pan, and served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. The peaches are usually peeled and sliced, and then mixed with sugar, flour, and other flavorings before being placed in the baking dish. The topping is made with flour, sugar, butter, and baking powder, and is often mixed by hand to create a crumbly texture. Once assembled, the cobbler is baked in the oven until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. The dish is then allowed to cool slightly before being served. Peach cobbler is a popular dessert in the Southern United States, where fresh peaches are abundant during the summer months. However, the dish can also be made with canned or frozen peaches, making it a year-round treat.
