This cobbler is wonderful after thechipotle-honey glazed pork(frankly, it's wonderful after anything).

This cobbler recipe is excellent! The biscuits were tender and had a rich flavor. I used peaches and plums and think the recipe could use more fruit. I also dusted the top of the biscuits with sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon and it was very, very good.

This is a great recipe with simple ingredients. No need to fuss it up with fancier recipes. The biscuits were tender and cake-like, perfect for juicy peaches. Based on the comments, I used an extra peach and cut them into 1/8ths. I wish I made the recipe as written; the peaches didn't cook down all the way, but it's because I sliced them thick. With farmers' market peaches, the fruit layer was very sweet. Next time I'll reduce the sugar a bit.

I've been using this recipe for years. Tonight, I took it to the next level by using a Meyer lemon. I added the zest to the crust, too. Eight peaches, peeled and cut into eight wedges each. Two tsp corn starch. No other spices. You do need to bake the peaches first (as another reviewer wanted to skip) because the peaches need to be hot to cook the biscuit dough all the way through. Sprinkle sugar over the dough before baking. Best cobbler I've ever made!

Love the simplicity of this recipe. The peaches do the heavy lifting here, for sure. I followed the instructions exactly. I didn't have the most ripe peaches, still the dish came out great. Everyone wanted to know what was in it. Next time I definitely want to try with farmer's market peaches. This will be a summer staple in our house!

Delicious! A few alterations: 8 peaches/ nectarines. A little vanilla. I cut peaches into small chunks not slices. Topped w vanilla ice cream.

The crust was fabulous. If you need more peaches then add them, don't shoot the recipe. It is a well balanced desert as designed. I've also made this substituting a large 29 oz can of sliced cling peaches in heavy syrup (pour off the juice for breakfast tomorrow). Nobody can tell.

Always use this recipe as a base. Sometimes I add some Penzey's dried lemon peel or freshly grated nutmeg or cinnamon to the peaches. It just adds a more complex flavor. The biscuit topping is VERY good especially with a little sugar sprinkled on top before baking. The sugar adds just a little crunch and it's pretty. The key to flavor is very ripe fresh peaches which are allowed to ripen on the tree.

Good recipe, very tasty, easy. Oven temp of 425 is a little too hot, though, the peaches almost got burned around the edges. Definitely less cook time than called for.

This was a great and very speedy recipe. I cut the baking time initially to five minutes so the peaches wouldn't be too soft. I would add a bit more starch and cut small pats of butter before adding the crust on top.

My 11 year old makes this every summer. Like other commenters say, add more peaches and slice a little thicker. We love this.

Delicious ... but I think next time I wouldn't cut the peaches so thinly, nor would I cook them for 10 minutes prior to adding the biscuit topping to them. My peaches were very ripe and from a farmer's stand, and they were a bit too mushy for my liking after the extra cooking time. It also needed a bit more time in the oven.

Really great, go to cobbler recipe. I added cherries since I did not have enough peaches. And I sprinkled sugar on the top of the biscuit layer. I might have decreased the amount of sugar in the filling, since the peaches were so sweet.
