Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, canned peaches work perfectly in this recipe. Just make sure to drain them well and warm them up before pouring them over the batter. This will help achieve that desired juicy texture without making the cobbler soggy.
What can I use if I don't have baking powder?
If you don't have baking powder, you can make a substitute by combining 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda with 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar or lemon juice for each teaspoon of baking powder needed. This will help your cobbler rise nicely.

To make a gluten-free version of this peach cobbler, simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Be sure to check that your baking powder is also gluten-free, and you’ll have a delicious dessert that everyone can enjoy!
