Top tip

It's important to let the cobbler cool until it's warm, not hot. This allows it to thicken up a bit.

FAQ

Is peach cobbler supposed to be soupy?

Runny cobbler is usually the result of extra juicy fruit or not letting it cool long enough. Let your cobbler sit after baking to thicken up.

Does fruit go on the top or bottom of a cobbler?

Traditionally, the fruit is added to the top of the batter. However, in cobblers like this one made with cake mix, the topping goes on top.

Do you serve peach cobbler hot or cold?

The temperature at which you serve your cobbler is totally up to your preference. Peach cobbler is delicious hot, warm, or cold.
