This Old School Peach Cobbler is not only delicious but super easy to make. Ready to eat in less than 1 hour. A must for cobbler lovers.
My wife loves a good Peach Cobbler. To be honest, it’s not something I make very often so I asked my mother-in-law for her Old School Peach Cobbler recipe so I could surprise my wife for our anniversary.
This peach cobbler is about as easy as it gets to make thanks to the Bisquick. This peach cobbler recipe would be a great recipe to teach a young one to bake.
This recipe is pretty much bulletproof. The only thing that could go wrong is to forget to drain the peaches. Don’t ask how I know that.
Peach Cobbler is often served with vanilla ice cream so make sure you have some on hand when you make this recipe.
I was a little curious where the word “cobbler” came from so I decided to look it up. If you are as curious as I am, you can read up on the origins of the word cobbler.

Bisquick Substitute
If you don’t have any Bisquick on hand, you can make your own by combining 1 Cup All Purpose Flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Salt and 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter (or vegetable oil).

Do you use the peach syrup in the dry mix?
No. As listed on the recipe card you drain the peaches and use them. You can discard the juices or reserve for another use.
Sounds delicious! Does it matter if the peaches are in heavy syrup or their own juice?

I know that this is a simple recipe the only thing I missed was coating the peaches with the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg; however it turned out beautifully and would make it again.
This peach cobbler is to die for. It has great flavour and loved the outcome. Very delicious.
My husband has been asking for peach cobbler. Started searching. Loved your story. Chose your recipe and my search for an easy GREAT tasting recipe has ended. It was so easy to make and tons of flavor, I always heap my spices a little. Cannot go wrong with the Bisquick topping. OMG!!! Thank you and your mother-in-law for sharing.
Yes, I did make this recipe and was very pleased with it!! I will make it again And probably use a little more cinnamon ,either in the mix or sprinkled on top and add Pinch of salt with the peaches and sugar. Even though it is good as is presented.
What is the white vinegar for . The cobbler looks awesome. But I need to know where the white vinegar goes.
There’s no vinegar in recipe..
