Description

Southern-style peach cobbler just like grandma used to make is made with buttery biscuits baked into a peach filling and topped with flaky pie crust.

Ingredients

2 (29 ounce) cans peaches
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 pinch salt
1 (16 ounce) can refrigerated buttermilk biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands!®)
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch white sugar
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pastry for a 9-inch pie crust

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Mix peaches, 3/4 cup white sugar, brown sugar, butter, cornstarch, vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, and salt in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir until sugars are dissolved and butter is melted, about 5 minutes.
3 Sprinkle each biscuit with 1 pinch cinnamon, 1 pinch white sugar, and 1 pinch nutmeg. Flatten biscuits on a lightly floured surface using a rolling pin. Cut each flattened biscuit into 12 to 15 small squares; stir into peach mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 10 minutes.
4 Pour peach-biscuit mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish and allow to thicken for 2 to 3 minutes; cover or decorate with pie crust. Cover dish with a sheet of aluminum foil and place dish on a baking sheet.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cool before serving.
