Ingredients

For the Peach Cobbler:

  • 1 stick butter or margarine (1/2 cup)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Dash of salt
  • 1 quart sweetened fruit (peaches, cherries, or blackberries)
  • (For this recipe: use canned peaches in syrup)
  • 1 box vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 2 tablespoons reserved peach syrup

For Serving and Garnish:

  • Premade pie crust (graham cracker or shortbread recommended)
  • Whipped cream (for topping)
  • Crushed graham crackers or ground cinnamon (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Drain the Peaches – Open the can of peaches, drain the syrup, and save 2 tablespoons for later. If needed, slice the peaches in half and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Make the Pudding Layer – In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and 1 cup of milk until thickened. Fold in the reserved peach syrup for added flavor and creaminess.
  3. Step 3: Layer the Cobbler – Place the premade pie crust in a 9-inch dish. Spread the prepared vanilla pudding evenly over the crust and layer the sliced peaches on top.
  4. Step 4: Chill and Set – Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the cobbler to set.
  5. Step 5: Garnish and Serve – Before serving, add dollops of whipped cream on top of the cobbler. Optionally, garnish with crushed graham crackers or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flair.

Notes

  • You can experiment with different fruit options like cherries or blackberries for a twist.
  • For a quicker version, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead of making one from scratch.
