Notes

This peach cobbler is a classic Southern dessert that works with fresh, canned, or frozen peaches. For best results, do not stir the batter and fruit after layering. Use peaches canned in juice (not syrup) to avoid excess sweetness. Add a sprinkle of brown sugar or chopped pecans on top for extra flavor and texture. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for 2 months.
