You’ll love this peach cobbler with canned peaches! With this simple dump-and-bake recipe, you can make a fast cobbler that is every bit as delicious as one made with fresh peaches.
If you need an easy to make, dump-and-bake dessert, you can’t go wrong with this peach cobbler with canned peaches!
Made with shelf-stabled canned peaches along with pantry and fridge staples, it’s freaking delicious with minimal prep time.
Homemade canned peaches you put up yourself will give you the best results because they have your perfect level of sweetness. But if you use store-bought, that’s fine too—we’ll just add a little less sugar to balance it.
Pro Tips/recipe Notes
- Lightly spoon the flour into the measuring cup instead of scooping it. Scooping compacts the flour and you’ll end up using more than you need, which will throw off the proportions of the topping.
- Adjust the amount of sugar according to the sweetness of your peaches. When in doubt, I recommend mixing the filling with the minimum amount of sugar and giving it a taste, then adding more sugar from there if needed.
- You can store this peach cobbler covered at room temperature for 2 to 3 days. Eat it at room temperature or warm it up in the microwave.

Peach Cobbler With Canned Peaches
Ingredients
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter {1 stick}
- 3 cups canned peaches {drained and sliced}
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 3/4 cup milk {whole or buttermilk}
- 1/4 cup white sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C) with a rack position in the middle of the oven.
- Add the butter to an 8×11 baking dish. Place the dish into the oven while the oven preheats.8 tbsp unsalted butter
- Empty the canned peaches into a strainer and set aside to let them drain over a bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of peach juice.3 cups canned peaches
- Chop or slice peaches.
- Combine flour, salt, baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl.3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/8 tsp salt, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Add the milk and mix until just combined. Do not overmix. Let it sit for 5 minutes.3/4 cup milk
- Spoon the batter to distribute it evenly in the baking dish over the melted butter, without mixing the batter into the butter.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, sugar, and 1/4 cup of reserved peach juice, and spoon the mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish.1/4 cup white sugar
- Optional (but recommended): cover the edges of the baking dish loosely with foil.
- Bake at 350˚F, for 30 minutes. After the 30 minutes are up, remove the foil from the edges if using.
- Bake for another 5-10 minutes or until the cobbler topping is lightly browned and the fruit mixture is bubbling.
- Cool for 10-15 minutes and serve.
Notes
- Spoon the flour into the measuring cup instead of the ol’ “scoop and dump” method. That will pack the cup too full and will produce a dry cobbler topping.
- If your canned peaches are extra sweet, you can leave out the 1/4 cup of sugar altogether.
- Storing Leftovers: Allow the cobbler to cool and store covered leftovers at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the fridge for 2-3 days.
