Warm fruit desserts bring true comfort to the table. This sweet recipe combines soft juicy fruit with a golden crust for a quick treat.

Hi, I’m Laura Jennings, a 38-year-old home cook from Asheville, North Carolina. Growing up in the mountains, late August meant picking ripe fruit with my family. My grandmother taught me how to turn a simple harvest into warm baked treats. Over the years, I adjusted her recipe to make the topping extra buttery. Now, I share this sweet memory with you.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why is my peach cobbler runny? Peaches release a lot of juice as they bake. If your dessert turns out runny, your fruit was extra ripe or it needs a few extra minutes to rest after baking.

Can I use frozen fruit for this recipe? Yes, you can use frozen fruit. Do not thaw the slices before adding them to the batter, but add 5 extra minutes to your total bake time.

Do I need to peel the fruit first? Peeling is optional. The skins soften completely in the oven, but you can remove them if you prefer a smoother texture.

Does peach cobbler need to be refrigerated? You can keep the baked dish covered at room temperature for up to two days. Store it in the fridge for up to four days.
