Creating the Strawberry Peach Cobbler is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for a delicious dessert:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Fruit: In a large bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and peaches. Add 1/2 cup of sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss until combined.
3. Set Aside: Let the fruit mixture sit for about 10 minutes to marinate and release its juices.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, remaining sugar, and cinnamon.
5. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk and melted butter. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
6. Combine with Fruit: Pour the fruit mixture into a greased baking dish. Gently spoon the batter over the top of the fruit, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
8. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving.

These easy steps will guide you in creating a Strawberry Peach Cobbler that embodies the joys of summer.
