Absolutely 🍑 — Peach Cobbler with Canned Peaches is a classic, cozy dessert: sweet, tender peaches topped with a buttery, golden biscuit or cake-like topping. Using canned peaches makes it quick and easy while still wonderfully comforting.
Here’s a detailed recipe:
🍑 Peach Cobbler (Canned Peaches)
Ingredients (Serves 6–8)
Filling
- 2 (15 oz) cans sliced peaches, drained (reserve ¼ cup syrup)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (adjust depending on sweetness of peaches)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup milk (or more if needed)
- Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease an 8×8-inch or similar baking dish.
2. Prepare Filling
- In a bowl, combine drained peaches, reserved syrup, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish.
3. Make Topping
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in melted butter and milk (and vanilla if using) until a smooth batter forms.
4. Assemble Cobbler
- Spoon the batter over the peaches. Don’t worry if it doesn’t completely cover them — it will spread while baking.
5. Bake
- Bake 35–45 minutes, until topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean.
6. Serve
- Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
🔥 Tips & Variations
- Extra gooey: Pour the reserved syrup evenly over the batter before baking.
- Crispier topping: Sprinkle a little sugar on top before baking.
- Spiced twist: Add a pinch of ginger or cardamom to the filling for extra depth.
- Fruit mix: Swap half the peaches for pears, nectarines, or berries.
- Make ahead: Assemble and refrigerate overnight, bake the next day.
If you want, I can give a “luxury, bakery-style peach cobbler with canned peaches” version where the topping is buttery and layered like biscuits, the peach syrup is thickened for extra richness, and it’s basically dessert perfection 😏.
Do you want me to do that version?
