Tonight I’m serving my family peach cobbler for dinner.
What? Yes, you can serve peach cobbler for dinner, it’s totally allowed, I checked the rule book. But the real question is, will I be serving it will a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream, or in a bowl with a wee bit of warm milk?
Decisions, decisions.
If you have a bunch of peaches you canned this summer, this simple peach cobbler recipe is a great way to use up a few jars.
Peach Cobbler with Canned Peaches Recipe
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans or 4 cups canned peaches {drained}
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbs . granulated sugar
- 2 1 ⁄2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 ⁄4 tsp. salt
- 4 Tbs . cold unsalted butter (, cut into pieces)
- 2 eggs
- 2 ⁄3 cup heavy cream {I used 2% milk}
- 1 Tbs sugar
Instructions
- reheat oven to 350 degrees
- Butter a 9×9 casserole dish and set aside.
- Use a colander to drain the peaches, reserving the juice for smoothies later on. In a large bowl gently toss the peaches, flour and cinnamon together until the peaches are coated. Pour peach filling into buttered casserole dish.
- In a bowl {I used the same one} stir together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until a sticky dough forms.
- Scoop heaping spoonfuls of scone dough on top of the cobbler and bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until the topping in lightly browned.
Notes
Serve cobbler alongside vanilla ice cream for dessert or in a bowl with a wee bit of milk for dinner.

I just finished a delicious dinner of whole wheat pasta with collard greens harvested from my garden, but now I wish I ate at your house!

Faye says
Your cobbler recipe looks wonderful!

I love peach cobbler!! I only make it when I have fresh peaches off my tree but may try the canned version. I have a recipe that is calls for buttermilk instead of milk and nutmeg instead of cinnamon. Have to have ice cream to go with it.

I made and froze peach filling last summer. Going to try it with your topping. It’s snowing in North Texas and a hot cobbler will be perfect.

I am not a baker but I love peach cobbler. This may be a stupid question (like I said, I don’t bake), but you have 1/3 cup flour and 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour listed in the recipe. First of all, is there a difference between the flour and unbleached all-purpose flour? And I assume (but may be wrong) that you use the 1/3 cup of flour with the cinnamon to coat the peaches and the 2 cups of unbleached all-purpose flour in step4. Is this right? I’d love to try this recipe as you can use canned peaches instead of fresh, but I’m a little confused on the recipe.

Yes, that is correct. 1/3 cup to coat the peaches and 2 cups for step 4.
