Simple Peach Cobbler-made with just a few ingredients, this cobbler magically transforms creating a crispy, buttery crust on top with sweet juicy peaches inside!
Living in Georgia, I always get requests for a Peach Cobbler recipe. It makes sense, after all, we do have the sweetest peaches. We are also home to the World’s Largest Peach Cobbler. Every June, in Peach County, Georgia, we host the Georgia Peach Festival. Like other festivals, we have vendors, good music, fireworks at night and on the second Saturday of the event-Peach Cobbler.
Not just any cobbler, it measures 11 feet by 5 feet, cooked in a specially made outdoor oven just to bake the cobbler each year. It takes 75 pounds of peaches, 150 pounds of flour, 150 pounds of sugar, 32 gallons of milk and 90 pounds of butter. People come from near and far to sample the cobbler.
At 2:00 pm, the line for a taste will stretch 2-3 blocks. As you can imagine, you can’t use just a serving spoon or standard kitchen bowls to make and serve the cobbler. Five gallon buckets and boat paddles are involved.
The line is worth the wait.
Now since most of us don’t need a Peach Cobbler that will feed thousands, I picked up a few peaches provided by our local growers Lane Southern Orchards and Pearson Farms.
Fresh from the trees, full of sweet flavor and lots of juice. Nothing is better than a Georgia peach, seriously.
Creating a cobbler, takes just a few minutes. peel and slice those peaches, melt your butter, combine the flour and sugar with milk then into your casserole dish and bake.
The peaches sink to the bottom. The butter works its way to the top, creating a crispy crust. Pure magic.
Add a scoop of ice cream for the perfect summer treat.

now I’m craving peach cobbler!!!!
have a fabulous weekend Joan!
Now that’s a lot of Peach Cobbler!! I love the topping for this cobbler, makes me want to get on a plane and come get a bowl!
This looks delicious!! Do you peel the peaches or leave the skins on?
I peel the peaches, I’m not a skin eater in baked fruit recipes.
We to live in Ga. but the peach crop in our area got hit by the cold spell we had in spring so no peaches in this area, need to go a little south of here i guess ..This looks so awesome so i guess i will just go and buy enough peaches to make this one, can’t go a summer without some peaches that’s for sure. Thank you for sharing and have a blessed day 🙂
We make this only we call it “crazy crust cobbler” and they are so easy to do. I also make them sugar free.
When you make it sugar free, what do you use as a substitute for the sugar, are you using Stevia or an agave syrup? I’d love to make one sugar free for diabetic friends.
Peach cobbler is THE summer dessert in my Southern-bred mind. It’s been way too long since I baked one. I must remedy that soon!
You are so right!
I used to make this cobbler and haven’t made it in a long time…forgot how good it is…so must make it soon. Thanks for reminding me of it again…although yours looks better than the one I used to make and I’m sure it is. Wish I still lived in Georgia where I was raised so I could get some of those Georgia raised peaches to go in your cobbler. Thanks again, Precious.
Simple is always the best! Hopefully this time of year, you’ll be able to find some fresh Georgia peaches in your local market. Nothing beats a sweet Georgia Peach!
We get Carolina peaches delivered up to Wisconsin in a week or two. I will be trying your recipe!
