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 to remove excess moisture before adding them to the batter. This will help maintain the right consistency and prevent the cobbler from becoming soggy.
How do I know when the cobbler is done baking?
The cobbler is done when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking times may vary slightly, so keep an eye on it during the last few minutes to avoid over-baking.
Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Absolutely! To make a gluten-free peach cobbler, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Make sure the baking powder is also gluten-free. The texture may vary slightly, but it will still be delicious.
