Ingredients

10 (8 1/2-ounce) cans sliced peaches, drained
2 sticks unsalted butter, divided, 1 stick cut into small pieces
1 cup sugar, plus 1/4 cup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
2 store bought refrigerated pie doughs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Canola oil spray
1 pint vanilla ice cream, for serving

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large saucepan, add peaches, 1 stick of butter, 1 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg and bring to a simmer. Add bread crumbs and stir. Using a sprinkle of flour, roll out both pie crusts; 1 will be used for the top of the cobbler and 1 for the bottom.

Spray a 10-inch square pan with canola oil and place 1 layer of dough into the baking dish. Place a few chips of butter, as well as a dusting of the remaining sugar, on the bottom crust. Pour the peach mixture into the baking dish. Cut the top layer of dough into strips and arrange them on the top of the peaches in a lattice pattern. Top with 3 or 4 chips of butter and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the crust is brown and the peaches are bubbling. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

The best peach cobbler I have ever tasted.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Aretha takes this childhood treat to the next level. My husband not only enjoyed the dessert the first time I made it but... ever time I make it. I've gotten rave reviews from family and friends as well. Thank you Aretha and Food network for bring back some of my wonderful childhood memories of my mother making this fantastic dessert.

Soooo Good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this recipe on Saturday and it was great; this was my 1st time making a peach cobbler (which is my favorite) and it... was so good; I only used 1 can of peaches in a 10 in pie pan just in case it did not turn out right, I did not want to waste a lot of money; I am going to make a larger one this weekend.Read more

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was a great recipe; And very easy to make! I haven't ate peach cobbler since my father made it when I was younger (he's... a chef). It was like my father made it himself. I'm enjoying it right now! Read more

I used fresh peaches and it was fabulous!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My daughter and I went apple and peach picking this weekend and needless to say I had to do something with all of that fruit!... This was my first attempt at peach cobbler and I was very happy with the end result. I substituted 10 large peaches and it was just perfect. The best part is that the recipe is so simple. I look forward to trying it again in the future with the canned peaches so I can compare the end results. From the reviews I've read I'm sure the canned recipe will be fabulous too.Read more

Delicious down home flavor
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I was looking for a recipe like the cobbler my aunt makes and this one was right on point.Its easy and taste just like my... aunts who is a excellent cook and baker.The only thing is I didnt have the size pan the recipe called for and I used one a bit bigger so I should have bought a extra pie crust to fill in.But it was still very very good and I will be making this one again.Also DONT skip the bread crumbs it helps to thicken the syrup and adds texture,I thought it was a bit strange but it works perfectly.Happy Baking!!!
