I love peach cobbler, especially when fresh peaches are in season.
But sometimes I crave peach cobbler and I don't have fresh peaches and I don't have time to make pie crust.
This is when my Quick and Easy Rustic Peach Cobbler comes in handy!
The wonderful people at Zulka Morena Pure Cane Sugar sent me a whole bunch of their product for recipe development and a giveaway (entry below).
You still have time to enter!
Now...grant it...you can make your pie crust from scratch...I even have the recipe...and it's buttery and pretty much perfect...make sure you double the recipe because I like my cobbler with crust on the bottom and on the top!
When I am in a rush, I reach for Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust...why...because it's da bomb! It's light, flaky, buttery, and it's already made!
I refer to it as my no mess pie crust...no flour all over me and my kitchen!
Don't forget to make slits in the top of the cobbler prior to baking.
I also coated the top with lots of melted butter, then sprinkled lots of cinnamon sugar on top!
After about 40 minutes of baking time...this cobbler is HOT and ready to eat!
With this quick and easy recipe, you have no excuse not to have a big cobbler for your Christmas dessert!

I look at this and think, "wouldn't it be wonderful to have pie crusts like this?" If we want rolled pie crusts in Australia we roll 'em. :) However, it IS summer and we DO have peaches so this is mine!
ReplyDeleteThat's sad Maureen...they need to carry pie crust like this, it's makes things so much easier...
DeleteOh my goodness does this look delicious!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ali...
DeleteDo you think this would be okay to make the night before?
ReplyDeleteFor sure Kaitlin, my mom always makes cobbler the night before then remove it from the fridge and bake....we even freeze it, thaw it out in the fridge overnight and bake...it so delicious!
DeleteI made it the night before and baked it the next day. Problem. the bottom crust was white and soggy. Was this because it sat in the fridge for 8 hours? Is there any way to avoid this? Fortunately, it's hard to ruin cobbler so we're down to a few tablespoons (LOL).
ReplyDeleteHello Veloris, I've never had that happen to my crust, even when I make it the night before are remove it from the freezer and let it thaw...Maybe next time you can make up the filling the night before than assemble in the morning...because the crust is already made, and then it may lessen the chances of that happening...hope this helps...
DeleteCould it be the location in the oven? I placed it mid-oven and pre-heated.
ReplyDeleteI don't think so....I bake everything in the middle of a preheated oven...
