Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for Peach Cobbler using canned peaches—perfect when fresh peaches aren’t available.
Canned Peach Cobbler
Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches, drained (reserve ¼ cup juice)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (plus 2 tbsp for topping)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup milk
- Optional: pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat oven:
- 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the peaches:
- In a bowl, combine drained peaches, ¾ cup sugar, ½ tsp cinnamon, and vanilla.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- Make the topping:
- In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in melted butter and milk until smooth.
- Assemble the cobbler:
- Spoon the batter evenly over the peaches. It’s okay if some peaches peek through.
- Sprinkle 2 tbsp sugar (and optional cinnamon) on top.
- Bake:
- Bake 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool & serve:
- Let cool 10–15 minutes.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
💡 Tips:
- Use light syrup peaches for a sweeter cobbler, or in juice for a slightly tangier flavor.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of ground ginger or nutmeg to the peaches.
- Leftovers keep well in the fridge for 2–3 days and can be reheated.
I can also give a quick one-bowl skillet version that’s faster, with a slightly crispier top—still perfect with canned peaches.
