Trisha Yearwood Peach Cobbler

This Trisha Yearwood Peach Cobbler recipe is a delightful Southern classic that combines the sweetness of canned peaches with a buttery, golden crust.

Its simplicity and comforting flavors make it a perfect dessert for any occasion, from family dinners to potlucks.

What sets this cobbler apart is its effortless preparation and the irresistible contrast between the juicy peaches and the crisp, caramelized edges of the crust.

Ingredients

• 2 (15-oz) cans of sliced peaches in syrup
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup self-rising flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled (for topping)
• 4 tablespoons granulated sugar (for whipped cream)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Drain one can of peaches, reserving the syrup from the other can.

3. Pour the melted butter into a 9×12-inch baking dish.

4. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour and sugar.

5. Add the milk and reserved peach syrup to the flour mixture, stirring until combined.

6. Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish.

7. Arrange the peaches on top of the batter.

8. Bake for 1 hour, or until the crust is golden brown and has risen around the peaches.

9. While the cobbler bakes, prepare the whipped cream by chilling a large metal bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 20 minutes.

10. Beat the chilled cream and sugar in the cold bowl until soft peaks form, about 5 minutes.

11. Serve the warm cobbler topped with freshly whipped cream.

Possible Substitutes and Variations

– Use fresh peaches instead of canned for a more intense flavor (about 4 cups, sliced).

– Substitute other fruits like blackberries, blueberries, or apples for the peaches.

– Add 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra warmth.

– Use brown sugar instead of white for a richer flavor.

– For a dairy-free version, use almond milk and vegan butter.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the cobbler warm, straight from the oven, for the best texture and flavor.

Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream instead of whipped cream for an indulgent treat.

Pair with a cup of hot coffee or tea for a cozy dessert experience.

Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few fresh mint leaves for added visual appeal.

Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the microwave for a quick breakfast or snack.
