Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup salted butter, cut into 4 pieces
- 5 nectarines, sliced
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup whole or 2% milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for cinnamon sugar)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for cinnamon sugar)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the butter in a 9×9-inch baking dish and let it melt in the oven while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Slice the nectarines about 1/2-inch thick, discarding the pits.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the self-rising flour and granulated sugar. Add the milk and vanilla extract and stir until smooth.
- Once the butter has melted, arrange the sliced nectarines in the baking dish over the butter.
- Pour the batter over the nectarines and melted butter. Do not stir.
- In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar for the cinnamon sugar topping. Sprinkle it evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly around the edges. The cobbler should have a slightly crunchy edge and a soft, cake-like center.
- Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Optionally, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, substitute self-rising flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- If you don’t have self-rising flour, use 1 cup all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons baking powder.
- Frozen or canned nectarines can be used instead of fresh, just make sure to thaw and drain them before use.
- Do not stir after pouring the batter over the fruit for the best texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
