Peach Cobbler with Fresh Peaches

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In your baking dish, toss the sliced peaches with sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt.
3. If using canned peaches, stir in the cornstarch to ensure the filling thickens properly.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
5. Add the cold, cubed butter. Use a pastry cutter or forks to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized lumps remaining.
6. Pour in the milk and stir with a spatula just until the flour is moistened; the dough should remain shaggy and uneven.
7. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the peaches, leaving a few small gaps for steam to escape.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is a deep mahogany brown and the peach juices are bubbling vigorously around the edges.
