Ah, peach cobbler with canned peaches—sweet, warm, and perfect for dessert! 🍑 Using canned peaches makes it super easy and still delicious. Here’s a simple recipe:
Easy Peach Cobbler with Canned Peaches
Ingredients (serves 6–8)
For the filling:
- 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches, drained (reserve 1/4 cup syrup)
- 1/2 cup sugar (adjust based on sweetness of peaches)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)
For the topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- Make the filling:
- In a bowl, combine peaches, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using). Set aside.
- Make the topping:
- In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Assemble:
- Pour the peach mixture into the baking dish.
- Spoon the batter evenly over the peaches—it doesn’t have to cover completely; the topping will spread as it bakes.
- Bake:
- Bake 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Serve:
- Best served warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. 🍦
💡 Tips:
- Use the reserved syrup from the canned peaches for extra flavor—add a tablespoon or two to the topping batter.
- For a richer topping, you can sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top before baking.
If you want, I can also give a “super gooey and buttery” version that tastes like it came from a Southern bakery—really decadent!
Do you want me to share that version too?
