Peach Cobbler Recipe

Frozen peaches are baked in a cake-like topping with cinnamon sugar in this easy old fashioned peach cobbler recipe. It’s warm and bubbly with the perfect crust-to-fruit balance.

Flavor: Sweet, juicy peaches baked in a tender cinnamon-brown sugar crust make for the perfect summer dessert.
Skill Level: Free-formed cobblers, crisps, and crumbles are so easy to make!
Time-Saving Tip: Use a spice, vanilla, or yellow cake mix.
Serving Suggestions: Bake single-serve portions in ramekins with a dollop of homemade whipped cream. Serve in a bowl with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Peach Cobbler Ingredients

Peaches: I love using frozen peaches for this recipe, but fresh or canned peaches work well. If using canned peaches, choose peaches in juice and not syrup for the best flavor.
Batter: Whip up the simple batter in this recipe, or if you’re short on time, try a vanilla or yellow boxed cake mix. Or try your favorite gluten-free flour blend.
Variations: Toss in some blueberries for a pop of sweet color or garnish the top with powdered sugar, sliced almonds, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.

How to Make Peach Cobbler

Combine thawed peaches with sugar and set aside.
Pour melted butter into the bottom of a baking dish.
Whisk the batter ingredients and spread over the butter.
Top with peaches and bake (full recipe below).

If using canned peaches, freeze the juice in ice cube trays to add to iced tea, cocktails, or smoothies.
If using fresh peaches, use peeled peaches or leave the peels on for a more rustic look.
Avoid overmixing the batter so it stays light and airy.
For a little crunch, sprinkle the cobbler with coarse sugar before baking. You won’t regret it!

Savor the Flavor!

Store leftover peach cobbler covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

To freeze a baked and cooled peach cobbler, first bake it in a dish lined with aluminum foil so that once it’s frozen, it can be lifted out easily. Fold the foil over the frozen cobbler, then wrap it in plastic and freeze for up to 6 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and enjoy it cold or reheat portions in the microwave.
