Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, consider using fresh peaches or swapping in other fruits like blueberries or cherries. If you prefer a less sweet dessert, reduce the sugar to 3/4 cup. To enhance flavor, add a teaspoon of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the topping. This peach cobbler pairs beautifully with vanilla ice cream, making it a delightful summer treat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen peaches instead of canned?
Yes, you can use frozen peaches! Just make sure to thaw and drain them before adding to the baking dish to prevent excess moisture. This will help maintain the right texture of the cobbler topping during baking.
What can I substitute for flour in this recipe?
If you're looking for a gluten-free option, you can substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. Alternatively, almond flour or oat flour can be used, but keep in mind that it may alter the texture slightly.
How do I know when the cobbler is done baking?
The cobbler is done when the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling at the edges. You can also insert a toothpick into the topping; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs for the best texture.
