Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh raspberries, rinsed and drained

4 cups ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced

1 cup granulated sugar, divided

2 tablespoons cornstarch

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon juice

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Optional: Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 350°F (175°C) to create the perfect baking environment for your cobbler.

    Prepare the Fruit Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the rinsed raspberries and sliced peaches. On top of the fruit, sprinkle 3/4 cup of the granulated sugar, the cornstarch, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Gently toss the mixture using a spoon or spatula until the fruit is evenly coated. Allow the mixture to sit for a few minutes to let the flavors meld and the juices start to release.

      Make the Cobbler Batter: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and the remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until well combined. Then, pour in the melted butter and milk, stirring until just integrated. It’s important not to overmix the batter; a few lumps are perfectly fine and will contribute to the cobbler’s texture.

        Combine the Fruit and Batter: Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray. Pour the prepared fruit mixture into the bottom of the dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure every bite has fruit. Next, use a spoon to dollop the cobbler batter over the fruit. Spread it as evenly as possible, but don’t worry if there are gaps; the batter will naturally spread as it bakes.

          Add Cinnamon and Bake: Sprinkle the top of the batter lightly with ground cinnamon, which will enhance the cobbler's flavor as it bakes. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45–50 minutes. Look for a golden-brown top, and when you insert a toothpick into the center, it should come out clean.

            Cool and Serve: After removing the cobbler from the oven, let it cool for approximately 15 minutes. This cooling time allows the juices to thicken a bit, making it easier to serve. Enjoy your warm cobbler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a generous dollop of whipped cream for the perfect finishing touch.
