This is the BEST peach cobbler EVER! It's my MomMom's recipe that I adapted. To me, the ideal peach cobbler has lots of lightly sweet biscuit topping & plenty of peaches. This is perfect imho. The brown sugar, butter, & vanilla give the peaches a delightful flavor, while the lemon juice provides the perfect balance to their sweetness. It's the only cobbler I've ever had that's so good alone it doesn't even need ice cream! (Not that it's not AMAZING with ice cream or whipped cream!) Enjoy it warm with a cup of hot chocolate or coffee for the perfect breakfast or dessert!

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (big 29 oz. cans) sliced peaches in heavy syrup; drain syrup from 1 can only (del monte brand has better, firmer peaches than store brand) **see step 5 of directions below for using fresh (yum!) or frozen peaches **
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed (plus a little extra to sprinkle on top)
  • 1 stick real butter, melted, divided (1/2 stick for peaches ; 1/2 stick for topping)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 dashes cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons flour
  • 2 1/4 cups bisquick
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp. milk
  • 2 teaspoons real vanilla extract

How To Make perfect biscuit peach cobbler~outta this world!

  • Let's get this party started!
    Step 1
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Whisking melted butter, lemon juice, brown sugar, flour, & cinnamon mixture. Then I'll add the 2 cans of peaches, stir, & pour in dish. This stuff tastes good by itself! Ok, yes. I always lick the whisk when I'm done. I highly recommend you do the same.
    Step 2
    For Peaches: Whisk in a medium bowl, 1/2 stick melted butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, flour, and a dash of cinnamon. Then stir in the 2 cans of peaches (drain the syrup from 1 can only), mixing well & tossing to coat peaches evenly. Spread in bottom of lightly greased 9x13 pan or large casserole dish. Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon on top.
  • Sprinkle top with granulated sugar, brown sugar & cinnamon before baking.
    Step 3
    For Topping: Mix in medium bowl, Bisquick, sugar, remaining 1/2 stick melted butter, & milk. Dough will be sticky. Drop by rounded Tbsp. over top peach mixture. Generously sprinkle brown sugar + a dash of cinnamon on top.
  • And another one...
    Step 4
    Bake in 400 degree oven for 40-45 min. (Time really just depends on your oven, could be longer or shorter). You will likely need to cover with foil halfway or three quarters through baking time so top doesn't burn. Top usually gets done and middle needs cooked longer. This is no problem, just cover top with foil when it starts to look golden brown. Cobbler is done when top is golden brown & toothpick inserted all the way through topping in the center of cobbler comes out mostly clean with very few crumbs. I always check with the toothpick in a few different spots, just to be sure the topping is done, because it’s quite thick.
  • Fresh peaches for cobbler!! Highly recommend using fresh if in season. Even if u only have a few fresh peaches, u can combine them with the canned ones.
    Step 5
    FOR FRESH or FROZEN PEACHES (I highly recommend using FRESH peaches if u can; it's delicious!): You'll need 7 & 1/4 cups of peeled, pitted, & sliced peaches. That's about 10 medium sized peaches. Place peaches in a saucepan on stovetop on medium heat & add the brown sugar, flour, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, 1/2 stick butter, & 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil, stirring often, then lower heat to a simmer. This step brings out & thickens their juices. I usually add some extra brown sugar in with fresh peaches too; use your judgement depending on how sweet they are. Simmer for about 5-10 min until juices thicken into a nice syrup. Then spread peaches in bottom of baking dish & continue with topping part of recipe. I've even used a combination of fresh & canned peaches when I didn't have quite enough fresh ones with fabulous results.
