Is it better to use canned or frozen peaches to make a cake mix peach cobbler?

You can use canned or frozen peaches to make a peach cobbler with cake mix. Choose based on what you like and what you have. Here are some factors to consider:

Texture: Canned peaches tend to be softer and more tender, while frozen peaches retain some of their firmness. If you prefer a softer texture for your peach cobbler, canned peaches may be the better option.
Convenience: Cooked and readily available, canned peaches require less preparation time. On the other hand, frozen peaches may require thawing and draining before use. If convenience is a priority, canned peaches are more convenient.
Freshness: When freezing peaches, people typically freeze them at their peak ripeness to preserve their flavor and nutrients. People usually cook and preserve canned peaches in syrup or juice, which may affect the taste and texture. If freshness is important to you, frozen peaches may be a better choice.
Availability: Canned peaches are often available year-round in most grocery stores. However, frozen peaches may be more challenging to find, depending on your location and the season. If fresh peaches are in season, you can also consider using fresh peaches for a more flavorful option.

Ultimately, both canned and frozen peaches can produce delicious peach cobbler. If possible, try both options to see which one you like better in terms of how they taste and feel.

You can also use fresh peaches for this recipe. I normally don’t because it takes a lot more prep work and time. If you do choose to go that route make sure you blanch, and peal your peaches for this recipe.

Ingredients for peach cobbler with cake mix:

To make this scrumptious peach cobbler with cake mix, you’ll need the following ingredients:

For The Peach Filling:

Sliced, peeled peaches (fresh or frozen): I prefer using canned for convenience. If you use fresh you will want to blanch and peel your peaches. If using frozen make sure you thaw your peaches ahead of time to release some of the liquid.
Ground cinnamon: Use good quality cinnamon.
Brown sugar: I love the depth of flavor brown sugar adds to the dish. You can also use granulated sugar if you don’t have brown sugar on hand.

For The Cake Topping:

1 box yellow cake mix: Make sure to use the yellow cake mix. I have made this recipe with white cake mix and it doesn’t give you the cobbler topping taste.
Unsalted butter, melted: Use a good quality butter like Kerrygold.
Brown sugar: This is optional for the topping. It adds a little crunch to the topping but you can leave it off if you would like.
Cinnamon: Use a good quality cinnamon.

For Serving:

Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional)

How to make a peach cobbler with cake mix:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×9 or 9×13-inch baking dish (9×9 will give you a thicker cobbler).

Spread the sliced peaches evenly in the greased baking dish, ensuring it reaches the edges.

Top the peaches with brown sugar and sprinkle with cinnamon.

In a separate bowl, prepare the cake topping. Empty the contents of the yellow cake mix into the bowl and add the melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Sprinkle the cake topping evenly over the peach filling. If desired, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon over the top for an extra crunch.

Place the dish in the hot oven. Cook it for 45-50 minutes. The top should be golden and the filling should be bubbling.

Once baked, remove the peach cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the filling thicken slightly.

Enjoy warm peach cobbler alone or with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delicious treat.
