What is Peach Cobbler?
Peach cobbler is a classic dessert that originated in the southern United States. It is typically made with a sweet, fruity filling of fresh or canned peaches, often flavored with ingredients such as cinnamon and vanilla sugar. During the baking process, the dough rises and turns golden brown, creating a crust that contrasts beautifully with the soft, syrupy peach filling.
This dessert is popular for its cozy flavors and rustic, homelike appeal. Often served warm, it can be enjoyed on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Peach cobbler is especially popular during the summer months, when peaches are in season, and offers a delightful taste of fruity sweetness.
Peach Cobbler Ingredients
- Sugar: It adds a sweet note to the dessert and helps balance the overall flavor.
- Flour: Use the flour to make the dough for the cobbler topping. Provides structure and texture for the dessert.
- Milk: It helps to create a smooth texture and richness.
- Baking powder: It is a leavening agent that helps the dough rise.
- Salt: Add salt to enhance the flavor and balance the sweetness.
- Butter: Use butter in the cobbler topping to add richness and flavor.
- Canned peaches: Peach is the primary fruit used in peach cobbler, providing a juicy, fruity flavor.

How to make Peach Cobbler
- First, slice the peaches and put them in a saucepan. Add 1 ounce (30 gr) of sugar, 0,07 ounces (2g) of salt, cinnamon and vanilla sugar. Simmer over medium heat until the sugar melts. Up to 5 minutes.

Chef recipe tips
- Flambéing peaches adds additional flavor characteristics. The peaches become spicier and their flavor brighter.
- Canned peaches can be substituted for fresh peaches in season.
How to Store and Reheat Peach Cobbler?
It is best to eat the pitch cobbler immediately after baking. However, you can keep leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Don’t forget to cover them or put them into a container. Before eating, reheat the cobbler in the microwave or oven for 20 minutes.
A fairly standard dessert with a typical combination of nutrients: lots of simple carbohydrates paired with fats. As a proponent against sugar in any form, I cannot recommend this dish, as the only significant outcome of its consumption is cellular aging (and with regular consumption in significant quantities, you'll also get skin breakouts and excess fat in problem areas of your body). If you want to prepare a healthier version of this dessert, I suggest replacing sugar with a calorie-free sweetener (such as a blend of erythritol and stevia), opting for whole grain flour instead of regular white flour (you can also experiment with rice or other gluten-free flour if you have celiac disease). Additionally, you can replace canned peaches with fresh ones, as canned ones often contain a significant amount of added refined sugar, which is unnecessary for our bodies.
