Peach cobbler made with canned peaches is a quick, old-fashioned dessert that’s warm, juicy, and topped with a soft, golden crust. It’s a shortcut version of the classic peach cobbler, perfect when fresh peaches aren’t in season.

- Pour into a buttered baking dish.
2. Make the batter topping

- Pour melted butter into the baking dish over peaches.
- Then gently pour batter on top (do NOT stir).

🔥 Tips for best cobbler
- Don’t mix layers—batter rises through peaches naturally.
- Use a deep baking dish to prevent overflow.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
- Let it rest 10–15 minutes so it sets properly.
