🥢Substitutions

  • Canned peaches - instead of using peach pie filling you can use 2 (16 ounce) cans of peaches in heavy syrup.
  • Sliced peaches in light syrup - if you prefer a lighter taste substitute this canned version for the peach pie filling.
  • Box of white cake mix - for the yellow cake mix.

No special equipment is required but I do like to use a casserole dish with a lid to make it easier to store leftovers.

🍱Storage

Once this delicious peach cobbler has cooled completely any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator or right in the baking dish with a tight fitting lid.

💭Pro tip

It's a good idea to allow this easy dessert to cool for approximately 5 minutes before serving because it will be just too hot otherwise.
