Preheat your oven to 375°F.

Place the sliced peaches in a small saucepan with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and salt. Heat on medium for about 3-5 minutes until the sugar dissolves and the peaches start to release their juice. Remove from heat.

Place 4 tablespoons unsalted butter into a 9x9-inch baking dish. Put the dish in the oven for a few minutes until the butter melts, then remove it from the oven.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon. Stir in milk just until combined.

Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the dish. Spoon the warm peach mixture over the batter, allowing small gaps for the cobbler topping to rise. Do not stir.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and set.

Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes before serving. If desired, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
