Southern Peach Cobbler is a great old time peach dessert that everyone seems to love. I grew up eating this but my grandmother used to make hers with pie crust.
This is the shorter version of my favorite pie crust cobbler. So if you like pie crust cobbler you are going to really LOVE this. I kid you not, this is such an easy recipe.
It’s pretty scary how simple and incredibly good it is. It’s so good, you’ll end up sharing it with your family, guests, neighbors and coworkers! This recipe can be made with canned peaches (my favorite) or fresh just ripe peaches. More on that below and in the recipe card.
