This easy peach cobbler recipe is one we’ve made since we were little girls and is so delicious that we are all obsessed.
We love it for so many reasons but especially love that it’s simple and prepped in just 5 minutes. It’s also made with a handful of pantry staple ingredients (including a can of peaches to make it extra easy). It’s as easy as our cake mix peach cobbler, but a little more “homemade”.
Because this cobbler is so buttery, easy and delicious, it’s become a go-to for so many family functions, BBQs and holiday gatherings. It’s the perfect dessert!
Why we think you’ll love it:
- Pantry staples. It’s made with pantry staples, which makes it a go-to! Just add a can of peaches.
- Easy to double. Just make it in a bigger pan – perfect for serving a crowd (or for seconds).
- Perfect all year long. Summer, winter, holidays – it’s always good! No need to wait for peach season when using a can.
Peach Cobbler Ingredients and Substitutions
- 1 (15-ounce) can of peaches – the whole can (do not drain)
- ½ cup butter – we use unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour – see How to Measure Flour
- 1 cup sugar – or replace half the granulated sugar with light brown sugar
- 1 cup milk – at least 2% milk or whole milk
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- pinch of salt
- ground cinnamon – or sprinkle on ground nutmeg, allspice, or a Pumpkin Pie Spice
How to Make Peach Cobbler
- PREP. Preheat your oven to 350°F and melt the ½ cup butter in a 9×9-inch baking dish in your oven.
- ASSEMBLE. In a medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and a pinch of salt and stir until just combined. Take the pan out of the oven once the butter is melted and pour the batter mixture over it.
- Spoon the canned peaches (with the juice/syrup) over it. Do NOT mix!!
- BAKE. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and serve warm. We love to serve it with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream and Whipped Cream!
Kristyn’s Peach Cobbler Tips
- USE REAL BUTTER – don’t skip this!! Real butter is what helps give the cobbler that rich, buttery caramelized crust.
- SERVE IT RIGHT – Peach cobbler is amazing on its own, but it’s next level with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream or homemade Whipped Cream. Pure heaven!
- EXTRA CRUNCH – if you want a little extra crunch on that crust, sprinkle a little extra sugar (or even cinnamon sugar) on top before baking.

Came out really doughy even though I baked it an extra 5 minutes. I think some of the juice should be drained off the peaches. I had previously made a cherry cobbler from a different recipe that came out great. It only called for 1/2 cup of butter, 1 1/2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups of sugar and 2 teas. baking powder. I was really disappointed with this recipe and none of my family liked it.
I’m sorry it didn’t turn out how you hoped. Thanks for giving it a try and for your feedback!
This recipe was in a women’s club cookbook from the 70’s. We always use one can of peaches with pear juice and add another can w/o juice. It’s too sweet with heavy syrup. Either way, it’s simple and delicious.
That’s fun to hear and I love your tip about the juice.
Can I double this recipe for a 9×13?
Yes you can. No need to change the temperature just keep it at 350°F. It may need just a few extra minutes since it’s a larger batch, so bake until the top is golden and bubbly!
Don’t go a restaurant or bakery for dessert. Make this instead. You won’t find anything better than this! I sprinkle sugar on the top of the cake before baking for that extra crunch. It’s Devine!
So glad you loved it! Sprinkling sugar on top sounds delicious; thanks for sharing such a great tip!
Can you use a glass baking dish yo make this peach 🍑 cobbler?
Glass dishes heat up more slowly than ceramic or metal, but they retain heat for a longer period. To prevent the outside from overcooking before the inside is done, it is generally recommended to decrease the oven temperature by 25°F and potentially increase the baking time by a few minutes.
Have used this recipe for YEARS, it’s an AWESOME recipe served warm w/a dip of ice cream! My ‘Grands’ & ‘Greats’ FAVORITE DESSERTS! ENJOY OFTEN!!!
That’s so nice to hear! My mom served it at Sunday dinner and everyone added a scoop of vanilla ice cream too.
Simple to make and delicious!
I’m happy to hear you enjoyed making and eating the recipe!
