Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
• 3 cups sliced fresh peaches
• 1 tablespoon raw sugar, or as desired
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 1.5 cups white sugar
• 0.25 cup butter, melted
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1.5 cups self-rising flour, or as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Stir peaches with lemon juice in a bowl to prevent fruit from browning. Transfer to a cast iron skillet and stir in 1 1/2 cup white sugar, pecans, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Bring to a soft boil, stirring often.

Step 3

Whisk self-rising flour, 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl. Stir melted butter into the mixture (batter should resemble cooked oatmeal). Spoon batter over hot peach filling in the skillet; dot topping with 2 tablespoons of butter pieces and sprinkle with raw sugar.

Step 4

Bake cobbler in the preheated oven until topping is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
