Ingredient Notes for Cinnamon Peach Cobbler

Here are some notes on the ingredients. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.

• Brown sugar- I used light brown sugar, but dark brown sugar will work as well.
• Peaches- I prefer to make this recipe with ripe fresh peaches, but canned or frozen will work as well. Make sure to drain excess liquids. If your peaches are extra ripe or juicy be sure to add 1/2 TBSP of cornstarch to thicken it.
• Coarse sugar- Any coarse sugar will work. I used Sugar In The Raw. If you use a regular granulated sugar it will not make as crunchy of a sugar crust.
• Baking spray- You can substitute a nonstick cooking spray for this recipe. I prefer the baking spray with flour in it, but it is less important here as the biscuits do not touch the pan.
• Unsalted butter- Do not use salted butter as unsalted is the easiest way to control the amount of salt in the recipe.
• Heavy whipping cream- This is only used to brush the tops of the biscuits.

Ingredient Substitutions

• Dairy free- You can use your favorite dairy free options for this recipe!
• Gluten free- I haven’t tested this gluten free. Let me know if you do.
• Buttermilk- You can also do 1 cup of milk with 1 Tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for 10 minutes before using.

Step By Step Instructions – Cinnamon Crumble

Here is how to make and bake the cinnamon crumble for the cinnamon peach cobbler.

STEP 1: Prep. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Meanwhile, spray a baking sheet with baking spray. Set it aside.

STEP 2: Mix crumble. Mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and all purpose flour together in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and stir it with a fork until it is mixed well and clumps up.

STEP 3: Pour crumble. Pour the crumble mixture over the prepared pan. Spread it out in a layer roughly 1/4 inch thick.

STEP 4: Bake crumble. Bake the crumble for 8 minutes. Immediately after baking stir the crumble. Let it cool for 4 minutes before stirring again to break up larger clumps, then let it cool completely.

Step By Step Instructions – Peaches

Here is how to prepare the peaches for the cinnamon peach crumble.

STEP 1: Prep. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Meanwhile, spray a 9X13 casserole dish with baking spray. Set it aside.

STEP 2: Mix peaches and seasonings. Use a large bowl to mix the sliced peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until fully combined.

STEP 3: Add crumble and pour. Add 3/4 of the cinnamon crumble to the peach mixture. Mix well and pour them into the prepared casserole pan.

STEP 4: Bake. Bake for 20 minutes.

While they bake begin preparing the biscuits.

Step By Step Instructions – Biscuit

Here is how to make the biscuits and bake the cinnamon peach cobbler.

STEP 1: Knead butter. Mix the all purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the cubed butter and knead it in with a pastry kneader or two forks. Continue kneading until the butter clumps are the size of a pea.

STEP 2: Add buttermilk. Add the buttermilk and mix it in with a rubber spatula. As it combines into a dough switch to your hands to mix it completely.

Make sure to complete this step quickly to avoid warming up the butter in the dough and avoid overworking the dough.

STEP 3: Chill dough. Place the biscuit dough in the fridge until the peaches are done baking. We do not want it to warm to room temperature.

STEP 4: Top peaches. Grab small pieces of the dough (a bit less than palm sized when flattened) and place them as dollops on top of the peaches until all of the dough has been placed. Add the remaining crumble on top.

STEP 5: Add cream and sugar. Use a pastry brush to brush heavy cream over the top of the biscuits. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top.

STEP 6: Bake. Lower the preheated oven temperature to 375 degrees F and bake the cobbler for 23-28 minutes. It is done when the biscuits are lightly golden brown.

STEP 7: Serve. Let the peach cobbler cool down to a comfortable temperature before serving with vanilla ice cream.

Expert Baking Tips

• Be sure to mix the biscuit dough just enough to combine after adding the buttermilk. If you overwork the dough the biscuits will be tough.
• Spray the casserole dish with a thorough layer of baking spray to ensure the cobbler will come out easily. If you miss some of the pan the peaches will stick to the bottom and make serving more difficult.
• Make sure the cubed butter is cold when kneaded into the biscuit dough. You can cube it in advance and then keep it chilled in the fridge until needed to avoid it warming.
• Make sure the peach slices are thin as thicker peach wedges will cook slower and end up being more crunchy and undercooked.

FAQ

Recipe Variations

• Store-bought biscuit dough- You can make this recipe using store-bought biscuit dough if you do not want to make your own. Quality may vary depending on the biscuits used.
• No cinnamon crumble- If you decide not to use a cinnamon crumble then add the extra brown sugar and cinnamon to the peaches instead. The cobbler will simply lack the crunchier texture of the crumble.

Special Tools

• Baking spray: I use the nonstick spray that has flour in it.
• 9X13 pan- I love using a casserole pan instead of a normal baking pan.

Storing and Freezing

The cinnamon peach cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Individual servings of leftover cobbler can be heated in the microwave before serving. If reheating the whole dish, place it in an oven safe pan and bake at 375° until heated through.
