Peach Cobbler FAQs:

Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?

Definitely. You can make Paula Deen’s Peach Cobbler with canned peaches. In fact, using canned peaches is how we modified this recipe, because you’ll need the syrup from the can as well! Of course, if youย prefer using fresh peaches, that’s ok too. You’ll just need to cook them in water and sugar to first to make a syrup to be used in the cobbler as well.

Why is my peach cobbler so runny?

The most likely cause of a runny cobbler is using peaches that have not been cooked already. Fresh or frozen peaches will release water into the cobbler during baking, causing a runny texture. This is easily remedied by using canned peaches or by cooking the peaches on the stovetop before incorporating them into the cobbler.

Another cause of runny cobbler may simply be that the cobbler was not allowed some time to cool before serving. As the dish cools after baking, the juices will thicken.Quick and easy peach cobbler. The perfect recipe to stretch out those summer days a little bit longer!

Can you make peach cobbler the night before?

I don’t recommend making this cobbler the night before. But this recipe requires so little preparation that you can prepare it quickly and easily about an hour before you’re ready to serve it.

Can I substitute other fruit for the peaches?

If you wish to substitute another kind of fruit, be sure to cook the fruit on the stovetop first. Mix together 4 cups of fruit and 1 cup of sugar over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. This will create a syrup that you can use in the recipe.Quick and easy peach cobbler.

What is the difference between a cobbler and a pie?

The main difference is how they’re prepared. A cobbler is baked with a biscuit like topping and pie is baked in a pie dish with either a pie crust topping or some kind of crumb topping, depending on the type of pie.

Can I freeze peach cobbler?

Yes, you can freeze the cobbler for later use. Just be sure to let it thaw completely before baking.

What are some good toppings for peach cobbler?

Some popular toppings include ice cream, whipped cream, caramel sauce and chopped nuts (such as pecans).

What kind of ice cream goes best with peach cobbler?

Vanilla is a classic choice, but there are many other delicious flavors that go well with this dessert. Some good options include strawberry, coffee or chocolate chip cookie dough.

Can I use another fruit instead of peaches?

Yes, you can use any type of fruit that you like in this recipe. Just make sure the total weight of fruit is about the same as the weight of peaches called for in the recipe.

How do I store leftovers?

Leftover cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days or frozen for later use.

Can I reheat leftover cobbler?

Yes, you can reheat it either on the stovetop or in a microwave. Just be sure to heat it slowly and stir occasionally to prevent it from burning.

What is the difference between a baking dish and a pie plate?

A baking dish is typically rectangular or oval in shape, while a pie plate is round. Baking dishes are also often deeper than pie plates.

  2. I love foodnetwork too! Giada and Ina are my two favs to watch. But I also love PBS cooking shows. I also cannot afford TV, so I’ve been tuning into them more and more lately.

  3. I love Food Network! Paula is probably my favorite to watch, but Chopped is my favorite show on FN these days.

    And this peach cobbler looks amazing! I’ve had a couple “crisps” and “crumbles” this summer, but what I really want is a cobbler like this! Thanks for sharing!
