In the summertime, it just doesn’t get better than fresh peaches, does it? I just love a fresh, in-season, juicy peach! I love to make this easy cobbler recipe with fresh peaches, but during other seasons, canned peaches are a great stand-in!
The first time I made this cobbler was for our County Fair night at the beach, which is why I gave it the name!
I recently made this peach cobbler for a church potluck, and when I went back for my dish, every bite of it was gone! It’s definitely great for potlucks since it tastes good at room temperature. I also love making it for my family. It’s so easy to put together, yet there’s something so classic and homemade about it. It would be great to serve for company too!
The recipe is written for an 8×8 pan, but I like to use a larger dish when I can so it doesn’t spill over. If I do use an 8×8, I always put an old baking dish underneath it to catch any overflow/spills.
Perfectly yummy as is, this peach cobbler is also quite indulgent with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
