FAQs
Can I use frozen peaches instead of fresh?
Absolutely! Just thaw and drain excess liquid before using to avoid a soggy cobbler.
How do I know when it’s done baking?
The cobbler should be golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Can I make this cobbler ahead of time?
Yes! Just assemble it without baking, cover it properly, and store it in the fridge. Bake when you’re ready to serve!
