Recipe

This peach cobbler layers juicy spiced peaches under a simple honey-sweetened batter. The topping bakes up golden and tender with a little toasted wheat germ for nutty depth, making it best served warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
5 | peach, large, peeled, pitted, and sliced |
|---|---|
1⁄2 | cup honey, warmed and divided |
1⁄4 | teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1⁄4 | teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1⁄4 | teaspoon ground mace |
1 | egg, extra large |
3 | tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the baking dish |
1⁄3 | cup whole milk |
1⁄2 | cup all-purpose flour |
2 | teaspoons baking powder |
1⁄8 | teaspoon fine sea salt |
1⁄4 | cup wheat germ, toasted |
| 1. | Heat the oven to 375°F and butter a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Toss the peaches with 1/4 cup honey, nutmeg, cinnamon, and mace until evenly coated. |
| 3. | Spread the peach mixture in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. |
| 4. | Whisk the egg, remaining 1/4 cup honey, melted butter, and milk in a medium bowl until smooth. |
| 5. | Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and wheat germ in a separate bowl. |
| 6. | Stir the dry ingredients into the milk mixture just until a soft batter forms. |
| 7. | Spoon the batter over the peaches and spread it gently, leaving a few small gaps for the fruit juices to bubble through. |
| 8. | Bake until the peach juices are bubbling and the topping is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. |
| 9. | Let the cobbler cool for at least 10 minutes before serving warm with whipped cream or ice cream. |
