Your summer needs a good easy peach cobbler recipe. And this one is not only super easy, but also so delicious.
Little compares to summertime produce.
Juicy watermelon. Ripe berries. And of course, fresh peaches.
There’s so much available this time of year. And it all tastes so fresh and good!
If you tend to eat more fruit during the summer than at other times of the year, you’re not alone. Not only are many fruits in season right now, but also, fruit is just hydrating.
Cold fruit can be so refreshing on a hot day. It’s totally normal to crave fruit in the summer than in the winter.
And you know what else? It’s perfectly okay if you’re not only eating plain, fresh fruit.
I mean, nothing wrong with that. It’s delicious right now! But, like with anything, it’s okay to mix up how you eat your fruit too.
Freeze it and blend it into smoothies. Chop it up and add it to a salad. Grill it at your BBQ (yum).
Or make something like this Easy Peach Cobbler. Yep, you can make fruit into dessert. And nope, it doesn’t “cancel” out any nutrients.
Sure, dessert isn’t the most nutritious food in the world. And I’m not suggesting you eat this dessert for its nutrition benefits.
But at the same time, it’s really important to recognize that it’s okay to eat fruit in this way too.
Summertime fruit is so fresh and delicious. And if you want to use some to make dessert – go right ahead.
This Easy Peach Cobbler, specifically, might be one of the best things you’ll eat all summer. If I do say so myself 🙂
Why You’ll Love This Easy Peach Cobbler
This dessert is refreshing, sweet, and satisfying all at the same time.
It couldn’t be easier to make either. After layering peaches in a baking dish, you’ll add a simple crumble on top and then add it to the oven.
I absolutely love this peach cobbler with a little vanilla ice cream on top, and it’s also great to serve to a crowd. There’s just something so satisfying about a fruity dessert in the summer.

Ingredients You’ll Need
- Peaches: The beauty of a peach cobbler is how non-exact the recipe can be. While the recipe calls for 5-6 medium-sized peaches, you can’t go wrong with slightly more or less.
- Lemon: I love this citrus squeezer to really get all the juice out of lemons.
- All-purpose flour: Flour gives that delicious crumble on top. Make sure to leave a few “clumps” of the crumble throughout.
- Granulated sugar: Important for sweetness!
- Butter: Make sure your butter is melted and cooled.
Easy Peach Cobbler Tips
- Get the most out of your peaches: Slice your peaches in half, then remove the pit. From there, cut each half into thin slices. A sharp knife like this is helpful!
- Dairy free: To make this peach cobbler dairy free, swap the melted butter for melted coconut oil.
- Baking dish: This set is my favorite – I can’t tell you how much use I get from it! I recommend using the 9×13 size for this recipe.
- Ice cream: Something about peach cobbler and vanilla ice cream just go together. It’s optional, but highly recommended to serve this vanilla ice cream 🙂
- Storage: Peach cobbler is best served right after making, but if you want to make it ahead of time, you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
