My fresh cherry and peach cobbler is everything you want in a summer dessert. The combination of sweet, juicy cherries and fresh peaches topped with a buttery cinnamon-sugar biscuit topping is nothing short of delicious.
Make the Filling: Add the peach slices, cherries, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cornstarch to a large bowl. Toss gently until evenly mixed. Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish or a large cast iron pan. Spread it out evenly.
Make the Topping: Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Make a well in the center and add milk, melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir until evenly combined. Drop the topping batter by spoonfuls on top of the fruit mixture and spread it out with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Bake, Cool, and Serve: Bake for 45-50 minutes at 350°F until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the thickest part comes out clean. Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving so the filling can thicken. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and enjoy!
Notes
Peeling Peaches: If you want peeled peaches, cut an 'X' in the bottom of each peach and blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds to 1 minute, then transfer them to an ice bath. The skins should peel off easily.
Adjust Sweetness: If using tart cherries, increase the sugar a bit to balance the tartness.
Make Ahead: Prepare the fruit filling and topping separately and store them in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake just before serving.
Individual Servings: Bake the cobbler in individual ramekins for 25-35 minutes.
