Here’s an easy and delicious Peach Cobbler using canned peaches:
Ingredients (serves 4–6)
For the filling:
- 1 can (15 oz) sliced peaches, drained (reserve a little syrup for extra sweetness if desired)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tsp lemon juice
For the topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray. - Prepare Filling:
- In a bowl, mix the drained peaches with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
- Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Make Topping:
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Assemble:
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches. It’s okay if some peaches peek through—the topping will spread while baking.
- Bake:
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean.
- Serve:
- Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
If you want, I can give a super quick 15-minute skillet version that uses canned peaches and requires almost no prep. It’s great for last-minute desserts. Do you want that?
