How to make Peach Cobbler step-by-step:
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Stir gently until combined.

Step 4: In another bowl, whisk together freshly milled flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 5: Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until crumbly.
Step 6: Stir in the milk and vanilla extract just until combined. Do not overmix.
Step 7: Let the batter rest for 5 to 10 minutes so the freshly milled flour can hydrate slightly.
Step 8: Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping over the peaches, and lightly spread the topping out to cover the peaches.
Step 9: Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
Step 10: Let cool slightly before serving. We love to eat our cobbler with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.
