Frequently Asked Questions

Can I leave the peach skins on?
Yes, but peeling the peaches gives the cobbler a softer, more tender filling and texture.

What type of peaches work best for peach cobbler?
Use ripe, fresh peaches that are juicy but still firm enough to hold their shape when cut.

Can I use canned or frozen peaches?
This recipe was developed for fresh peaches. Canned or frozen peaches may release a different amount of liquid, which can change the consistency of the filling.
