Easy Peach Cobbler

Peach Cobbler Ingredients

• Sliced peaches (1 (15-ounce) can, the whole can): Fruit and syrup create juicy pockets and sweet sauce as the cobbler bakes. Use the whole can and do not drain.
• Butter (½ cup): Melts in the pan to brown slightly, giving crisp, buttery edges and helping the crust rise around the fruit.
• All-purpose flour (1 cup): Forms the quick batter that puffs into a tender, cake like topping.
• Sugar (1 cup): Sweetens the batter and helps the top caramelize to a golden finish.
• Milk (1 cup): Loosens the batter so it pours and bakes into a soft crumb.
• Baking powder (2 teaspoons): Lifts the batter for a light, cakey cobbler top.
• Salt (pinch): Balances sweetness and brightens the peach flavor.
• Cinnamon, optional: Adds cozy spice that pairs perfectly with peaches.

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.
• NO STIRRING. Do not stir once layered, the batter rises through the peaches to create the crust.
• NO MORE JIGGLE. Bake until deep golden and the center no longer jiggles, start checking at 38 minutes.
• 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!
