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.

Peaches, sugar, flour, and other ingredients on a kitchen counter.
  • 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
  1. PREP. Preheat your oven to 350°F and melt the ½ cup butter in a 9×9-inch baking dish in your oven.
  2. 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!!
  3. 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!
  • 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.

    My 15 oz can of peaches does not look like it has enough peaches to make a nice cobbler. Can I add the peaches from another can without the juice? Thank you!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      You sure could 😉 Enjoy!!
