Is there a difference between Self-Rising Flour and All Purpose Flour?
Yes! Self-Rising Flour already has a leavening agent, such as baking powder, added in. It works great with this easy recipe because it takes one measurement out of the equation for you. For those of us that are new to baking, that’s an awesome thing!
Self Rising Flour is a MUST in this recipe or it will not bake up correctly. See below for substitutions.
Are there substitutions for Self-Rising Flour?
If you don’t have Self-Rising Flour, rest assured you can still make this easy Peach Cobbler recipe. WHEW! Just add in 1 teaspoon baking powder per 1 cup flour. Easy peasy, right?
When are peaches in season?
Most peaches are harvested between May and August, which is why this dessert is typically a summer recipe. But by making this peach cobbler with canned peaches, you can make it any time of year!
If you prefer to use fresh peaches, that’s totally fine! Just use about 6 peaches, sliced, or approximately 4 cups sliced peaches.

Great recipe! I added cinnamon and a tablespoon of vanilla. The overall outcome was fantastic!
My apologies for not getting an after pic before the family started digging in.
Sounds delicious, Michelle!
What amount each to use in the pie ?
The recipe card has all measurements listed!
It doesn’t have how much liquid from the peaches to use i only saw it in one of the comments
I have been making this since I was a teenager back in the 70s and it was and old recipe back then. It is the best and easiest cobbler there is. You can use this recipe also with berries, pears, almost any fruit just make sure you have enough syrup for your cobbler so it wont be dry.
Great point!! I’m so happy you love it!
The recipe calls for 1/4 cup liquid and that would be from both cans of peaches (if halving 1/8 cup liquid) so seems those with fails added too much syrup?
I can’t believe how easy and delicious this peach cobbler is it was a sensation with my friends. One said she didn’t care for each cobbler before but went back for seconds.
Aww, yay! That’s for sharing, Trudy!
Can you use AP Flour instead of self rising flour?
This recipe definitely needs self-rising I’m afraid.
My family LOVES this cobbler!!!!! It’s so easy to make.
Will change rating after it’s done b/c I”m in progress now… but what do we do with the salt? The recipe calls for “1/8 teaspoon sea salt” but doesn’t say where to add it. Thanks!
So when do you use the sea salt?
So yum! I made this for a family gathering and EVERYONE loved it! They thought I bought it at a store so I got extra brownie points when I told them I made it from scratch. I loved that it wasn’t too sweet and the crust had the perfect amount of chewiness.
So great to hear. Thanks, Ashley!
