Yes! Just be sure to add a couple tablespoons sugar and 1/2 cup of warm water when adding the peaches . This will mimic the syrup in the canned version.
Absolutely. You can bake it earlier in the day and reheat individual servings in the microwave or warm the whole dish in the oven
No problem! You can make your own by combining 3/4 cup all-purpose flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk it together before adding to the batter
A 3-quart baking dish works great for this . A 9×13 dish will also work but may produce a slightly thinner cobbler and less baking time .
I’ve been making a similar cobbler for years. My recipe doesn’t call for Bisquick though. I’ll have to try yours since peaches are in season. I’ve made mine with fresh or canned peaches either are equally as good. The recipe I have has a self-rising crust so it’s not too doughy.
hi…I have canned peaches and would like to know what homemade type topping I could make…do not have bisquick..to make something similar…any suggestions?
This recipe has been revised to using Self Rising flour . .
All I have is a 9 x 13 pan so how much more would I have to add to have the filling to be thick? I don’t wanna thin cobbler.
I would double the recipe . If you don’t have a smaller baking dish . I would bake for the recommended time and then check it every 5 minutes until the top is golden brown .
Thank you Debbie. I will let you know how it turns out. It just looks and sounds so yummy. Thank you thank you you thank u thank u🐶🐾🐾👣🇮🇱🇺🇦
