Get ready to make delicious peach cobbler any time of year with this delicious peach cobbler recipe using canned peaches (or fresh if you have them). It’s the perfect summer dessert or great any time of year!
Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake for 15 minutes.
While the peaches are baking, add 1 tablespoon lemon juice to the 1/2 cup milk and let is sit and thicken for 5 minutes.
1 TBS lemon juice, 1/2 cup milk
Add flour, sugar, and baking powder to your food processor and mix until combined then add the cold butter and pulse until mixture is crumbly. Don't over mix it.
Whisk the vanilla into the milk mixture, then add it to the crumb mixture and pulse until crumbs are just moistened.
1 tsp vanilla extract
Immediately after removing the peaches from the oven, spoon the topping over the peaches. If you don't do it right away the topping won't bake properly.
Place it back in the oven and bake for 40 minutes. If the topping starts to get too dark, cover lightly with foil.
Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream on top!
Notes
Ingredient Notes:
If you'd prefer to use fresh peaches, you'll need about 16 fresh peaches - pitted, peeled, and sliced.
You can substitute 1/2 cup of buttermilk for the milk + lemon juice if you have it on hand. Just make sure you omit the lemon juice if you replace the milk with buttermilk.
Orange zest can be substituted with lemon zest as well.
Tips:
Peel, pit, and slice fresh peaches if you want to use those instead of canned peaches!
Drain canned peaches to remove any excess liquid that may dilute the filling.
Make sure to add the topping onto the peach filling while the peaches are still hot to ensure it bakes correctly!
Serve with vanilla ice cream or homemade whipped cream for the ultimate summer dessert!
