Kitchen Tools Needed
- Cast iron skillet or casserole dish
Why Make it in a Cast Iron Skillet
I love the old-fashioned presentation that this Bisquick peach cobbler in cast iron skillet makes! But, it’s not only about how it looks.
Cast iron is ideal for baking as it bakes evenly in the oven. Plus, a seasoned cast-iron pan is naturally non-stick – you can even scramble eggs in them!
These are two reasons why a cast iron skillet is an invaluable kitchen tool. A good cast iron pan does double duty in the oven and stove. And, I love anything that saves me space in the kitchen.
How to make Bisquick Peach Cobbler
You’ll have the best cobbler with peaches in under 40 minutes with just 4 simple steps:
- First, preheat the oven to 375°F. Add the sliced peaches, cornstarch, 1/2 a cup of sugar, and lemon juice to a medium bowl. Stir to combine.
- Then, add the peaches to the bottom of the cast-iron skillet or oven-safe casserole dish. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the Bisquick topping:
- Rinse and dry the same medium bowl before adding the baking mix, remaining sugar, milk, and butter.
- Stir until just combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the peaches, and use the back of the spoon to gently push down and submerge the topping.
- Bake for another 15 minutes until the peach cobbler is golden on top.
- Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
🎯 TFN Pro Tip
When serving cobblers, consider adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream on top. A wedge of cream cheese is also good. The contrast between the warm, fruity filling and the cold, creamy topping creates a delightful sensory experience that enhances the flavors and makes the dessert feel extra indulgent.
Additionally, serving cobblers in individual ramekins can add an elegant touch and ensure that each guest gets a perfect portion with a balanced mix of crust and filling.
Serving Suggestions
Peach cobbler makes for a delightful dessert that pairs wonderfully with a variety of main dishes. Whether you’re serving teriyaki ribs, oven fried chicken with mashed potatoes, pulled pork, buttermilk pork chops, shell steak, or even mac and cheese, this sweet treat is sure to complement your meal perfectly.
Recipe FAQs
Use two 15-ounce cans of drained peaches, and increase cornstarch to 2 tablespoons.
You can use Splenda baking mix in place of sugar. Or mix half Splenda and half granulated sugar. However, be sure it is specifically the baking version, or your cobbler will not thicken properly.
1. Bake it until the filling is bubbly throughout.
2. Add the amount of sugar called for in the recipe. This combines with the fruit to create a thick, gelled filling.
3. Let it cool until the filling has thickened.
1. It could be that the filling or fruit was too cold and didn’t bake completely.
2. The cobbler wasn’t cooked long enough. Bake it an additional 5–10 minutes until the middle is bubbly.
Store leftover peach cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Leftovers can also be stored in a freezer-safe container in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, bake in an oven-safe container covered with aluminum foil at 350°F for 30 minutes.

Peach Cobbler Recipe with Bisquick
Equipment
- Casserole dish
Ingredients
- 4 large peaches, sliced and peeled (or 4 cups of frozen peaches, or two 15-ounce cans of peaches SEE NOTES)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ⅔ cup sugar, divided
- 1½ cups Bisquick mix (see notes for a DIY baking mix recipe)
- ½ cup milk, whole or 2%
- 3 tablespoons butter, grated (semi-frozen butter is easier to grate)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF.
- Stir together peaches, cornstarch, 1/2 cup of sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Pour them into the bottom of the cast iron skillet or casserole dish. Bake at 375ºF for 20 minutes (then we'll add the biscuit topping).
- Rinse the bowl, then stir together Bisquick mix, the rest of the sugar, milk, and butter. The batter will be thick, with a dough-like consistency.
- Carefully drop biscuit dough by large, rounded tablespoons (I use a small cookie scoop) on top of the peach mixture. Gently press down to submerge the cobbler topping. Continue baking for 15 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the biscuits on top are golden.
- Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving. Top with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or cream cheese.
Notes
- When serving cobblers, consider adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream on top. A wedge of cream cheese is also good. The contrast between the warm, fruity filling and the cold, creamy topping creates a delightful sensory experience that enhances the flavors and makes the dessert feel extra indulgent.

A good recipe, but don’t plan on leftovers. It comes out of the refrigerator quite runny–and demands a “re-bake” in the oven as the recipe states. Don’t even attempt to warm this in a microwave! It won’t turn out.
Harriet Young says
Delicious! That sweet peach with the crumbly topping is a delight.
DK says
