A warm, comforting dessert featuring juicy peaches soaked in honey and bourbon, topped with a tender, caramelized brown sugar biscuit crust. Perfect for gatherings and easy to make in under an hour.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or 4 cups frozen sliced peaches, thawed)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons bourbon (recommended Maker’s Mark)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (dark brown sugar preferred)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup whole milk (or almond/oat milk for dairy-free)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons bourbon, and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Toss gently to coat and set aside for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar.
  4. Cut in the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
  5. Stir in the milk, remaining 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon bourbon, and vanilla extract. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Pour the peach mixture evenly into a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the peaches, spacing them slightly apart.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly. Tent with foil if biscuits brown too quickly.
  9. Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Keep butter cold for tender biscuits. Do not overmix biscuit dough to avoid toughness. Use ripe peaches for best flavor. Let peach filling marinate before baking. Oven temperatures vary; use thermometer if possible. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for 3 days and can be frozen before baking.
