Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 can (15 oz.) sliced peaches, drained

Directions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare Baking Dish: Pour the melted butter into an 8×8-inch baking dish, ensuring it evenly coats the bottom.
3. Mix Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and milk. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. Add Batter to Dish: Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
5. Add Peaches: Arrange the drained peach slices evenly on top of the batter. The peaches will sink slightly into the batter during baking.
6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and the batter is set.
7. Serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
