Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?
Yes, you can definitely use fresh peaches! Just peel and slice about 4-6 ripe peaches, and make sure to adjust the baking time as fresh peaches may require a few extra minutes to soften and release their juices.
What if I want to make it ahead of time?
You can prepare the peach cobbler ahead of time by assembling it and covering it tightly with plastic wrap. Store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking. Just remember to add a few extra minutes to the baking time if starting from cold.
Is it possible to freeze peach cobbler?
Absolutely! You can freeze the unbaked peach cobbler for up to 3 months. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil. When you're ready to enjoy, bake it straight from the freezer, adding about 10 minutes to the baking time.
