Notes
-
Don’t Stir! The key to this recipe’s signature texture is layering the butter, batter, and peaches—without stirring. The batter will rise and form a golden crust on its own.
-
Canned vs. Fresh Peaches: Canned peaches in syrup are convenient and consistent. If using fresh peaches, peel and slice 2 cups, then toss with ¼ cup of sugar and a few tablespoons of juice or water.
-
Make It Your Own: Try swapping in other fruits like apples, berries, or cherries. The same layering method applies.
-
Dairy-Free Version: Use plant-based milk and dairy-free margarine for a completely dairy-free cobbler.
-
Storage Tip: Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
-
Make Ahead: This cobbler is best served warm, but you can prepare the dry ingredients in advance and assemble just before baking.
-
Serving Suggestion: Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent touch.
