Best Ever Peach Cobbler Recipe – This classic & traditional dessert is made with just a few simple ingredients and is so easy to make.
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Lodge Cast Iron cookware.
Every time I make any sort of cobbler I think to myself, why donโt I make these more often? Weโre talking very few simple ingredients and one of them being fresh fruit!
There are two things key to making this the best ever Peach Cobbler you will ever have. The first is a secret I learned from a friend, Sharae. I learned this trick the first time we ate dinner at her house where she made the best apple crisp Iโve ever had. I asked her why hers was so much better, and she said, โCake mix.โ
Instead of using traditional flour as a part of the crumb topping, she substituted it with yellow cake mix โ not prepared cake mix, just the powdered part. It makes such a difference!
The second is using a cast iron skillet. It makes the perfect, most absolute delicious caramelized fruit. Literally, my favorite part of eating a cobbler is eating the caramelized fruit from the side of the skillet. Now other pans will work, but using a cast iron skillet takes it to a whole new level I didnโt even know existed.
I prefer using Lodge Cast Iron cookware. Now that Iโve used my Lodge skillet in perfecting the art of cobbler, I will never use another pan. My favorite part of my Lodge Dual Handle Pan is that it comes seasoned and ready to use! There is no complicated seasoning process needed to get started. I canโt wait to use it for our other favorite cast iron skillet recipes like corn & flour tortillas, and of course, for searing our meats.
I am usually the kind of baker & cooker that feels like I can work with any sort of pots and pans, but on occasion, I cook with one that makes me realize I do have favorites. That is the case with this Lodge Dual Handle Pan โ I have the 12-inch skillet, and you can guarantee Iโll be ordering another!
Hereโs an added bonus. Many prefer to cook with cast iron while camping or picnicking, but some of my skillets and pots in the past have been hard to clean. Lodge Cast Iron cookware is easy to clean! Just hand wash, dry promptly, rub with oil and you’re set for your next use.
Sometimes itโs the little things we do with our recipes that make them over-the-top amazing, whether itโs the special pan we cook in or a twist in a recipe we learned from a friend. I love this Peach Cobbler, and you can bet that this will be making our dessert rotation. XOXO San

Aren’t simple recipes the best? Enjoy!
Can rinsed & drained canned peaches in natural juices be used for this recipe? We wonโt get fresh peaches for the next couple of ninths!
I haven’t tried it with canned peaches, so I’m not sure how it would turn out. You can certainly give it a try with either canned or frozen peaches and let us know how it turns out!
