📌Baking Tip: If you do not have self-rising flour on hand, simply combine: 1 cup flour with 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Whisk the ingredients together so that both the salt and baking powder are distributed evenly with the flour.

- Step 2: Then pour the batter into the pan. Add the can of peaches, juice and all on top of the batter. Do not stir.
📌Updated 2022: I received a few emails asking about the size baking dish used in this recipe. I used the middle baking dish from this set on Amazon which measures 8 x 10 ½. However, you can also use a 9×13″
Make the Brown Sugar Crumble
- Step 3: Using a pastry blender, cut in the cold, diced butter until the mixture looks like peas.
- Step 4: Make sure the crumble is evenly spread across the top of the peaches.
Baking Instructions
- Bake in a preheated 350° F oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the cobbler topping is baked through.
- My baking time was 35 minutes. Please remember that all ovens are calibrated differently, so if yours is not done at 40 minutes, continue to bake until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is set in the middle.

Gayle says
Have you ever doubled this?
Lois says
I would not double this recipe. I would make two. Thank you for visiting!
Fran says
Can I use regular syrup instead of lite? Any adjustments needed?
Lois says
Yes, you can use peaches with the full syrup. The dessert will just be sweeter and have more calories. Thanks for visiting!
Lauren says
I find the baking time inaccurate. I used a 9x9 pan, and it’s still in the oven, completely runny in the middle, an hour later. Any suggestions? 30-40 min just isn’t long enough.
Lois says
I'm not sure why your's is not done yet. Mine did bake completely at 35 minutes. I'm not quite sure what could be happening with your recipe.
Patty says
I agree! The same thing happened to mine!!! It took a total of 55 minutes to get “done”. Im thinking it was the 9x9 pan. All the PHOTOS show a larger rectangular pan. That would have made it much thinner and probably less time to cook.
Lois says
The baking dish I used measured 8 X 10.4 inches. I adjusted the size in the recipe to be that or a 9X13 inches.
Ali B says
Hello, you didn’t give instructions for the brown sugar crumble. It literally just says “Add paragraph with instructions”…
Lois says
Yikes! The directions were listed in the recipe card, so I hope you were able to grab the directions from the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post!!! I updated the whole recipe. Thanks for catching that!
Diane L Eme says
Can I use fresh peaches as they are in season and scrupulous right now
Do I adjust the timing
Lois says
I haven't made this recipe with fresh peaches, but I think you could! You might have to cook the cobbler a little longer because canned peaches are already cooked when you add them to this recipe.
