Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 6-8 medium peaches)

1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust depending on the sweetness of peaches)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

3/4 cup buttermilk (or regular milk mixed with 1 tablespoon vinegar)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Peaches: In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches with granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Toss to coat the peaches evenly and let them sit while you prepare the topping.

      Make the Oat Topping: In a separate large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and buttermilk, mixing until just combined. The mixture should be thick and crumbly.

        Assemble the Cobbler: Spread the peach mixture evenly in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Then, drop spoonfuls of the oat topping over the peaches, covering most of the fruit but leaving some areas exposed for a rustic look.

          Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. A toothpick inserted in the topping should come out clean.

            Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. It’s delicious on its own or served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
