- In a saucepan, combine cornstarch, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and butter; cook until thickened.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using fresh peaches instead of canned, or adding a splash of bourbon to the peach mixture. If you're out of cornstarch, all-purpose flour can work as a substitute, though it may alter the texture slightly. Make sure to keep an eye on the baking time; every oven can differ, and you want a perfectly golden crust.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the peach cobbler warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of Peppermint Stick Sauce for an extra treat. It pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or can be enjoyed alongside a cup of coffee. For a more festive touch, consider serving it with Boston Cookies for dessert.
Storage & Reheating
Allow the peach cobbler to cool completely before storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can be kept for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through, ensuring the crust remains crispy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen peaches instead of canned?

To make the peach cobbler gluten-free, substitute the standard pie crust with a gluten-free pie crust or make your own with gluten-free flour. Ensure that all other ingredients, including cornstarch and baking powder (if used), are certified gluten-free.
Can I add other fruits to the cobbler?
Absolutely! Feel free to mix in other fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries for a delicious twist. Just be mindful of the sweetness and adjust the sugar accordingly if you're adding tart fruits.
