#### **1. Prepare the Filling:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Peel and slice the peaches (if using fresh). If using canned or frozen peaches, drain any excess liquid.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine peaches, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly.
4. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
#### **2. Make the Cobbler Topping:**
1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
#### **3. Assemble the Cobbler:**
1. Pour the batter evenly over the peach mixture. It’s okay if it doesn’t completely cover the fruit—the batter will spread as it bakes.
2. Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top for added sweetness and crunch.
#### **4. Bake to Perfection:**
1. Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
2. Let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
