Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 tablespoons minute tapioca (ground to a powder in a spice grinder)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 6 cups peaches (peeled, pitted, and sliced evenly)
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh squeezed)
  • 3 tablespoon butter (sliced into pieces)

Crust and Topping

  • 1 Pillsbury Pie Crust (1 round sheet)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • Pinch salt
  • Sugar for sprinkling on top


Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly butter a baking dish or spray it with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Make the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the white sugar, ground minute tapioca, cinnamon, ground cloves, and nutmeg. Add the peeled, pitted, and sliced peaches along with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Gently stir all ingredients together to coat the peaches evenly.
  3. Arrange the Filling: Transfer the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish. Dot the top evenly with slices of butter to add richness as it bakes.
  4. Prepare the Crust: Unroll the store-bought pie crust on a flat surface. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into evenly sized strips that will be used to create a lattice topping over the peaches.
  5. Form the Lattice: Lay the dough strips across the baking dish, weaving them into a lattice pattern for an attractive finish. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges to make a clean border.
  6. Egg Wash and Sugar Topping: Beat together the egg, water, and a pinch of salt. Brush this mixture evenly over the pie crust to give it a shiny, golden-brown finish. Sprinkle a little sugar over the top for added sweetness and texture.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the peaches are tender and the crust has turned a beautiful golden brown.
  8. Cool & Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool for about 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the perfect dessert.

Notes

  • Minute tapioca helps thicken the peach juices and can be ground for a smoother texture in the filling.
  • Peeling the peaches ensures a tender bite and prevents tough skin in the cobbler.
  • Using fresh lemon juice balances the sweetness and adds brightness to the filling.
  • You can substitute the pie crust with homemade dough if preferred.
  • For best results, serve the cobbler warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
