This Magic Peach Cobbler is a winter cobbler using canned peaches, but fresh in season peaches can also be used. This is my absolute favorite cobbler recipe!!!! Fluffy on the inside with a delicious crispy topping!!!! The secret ingredient to this crispy topping is sugar and boiling water!

When I think of the perfect summer dessert peach cobbler always comes to mind. I don't think there's anything better than the aroma of a fresh picked peach. When peaches are in season my cobbler of choice is always my favorite Buttermilk Peach Cobbler. But, I do have times when I'm in a pinch and I need a dessert rather quickly, so canned peaches come in very handy. Some folks turn their noses up at using canned peaches in a cobbler, but I like to use them to make my favorite Magic Peach Cobbler. This recipe is especially useful in the winter when fresh peaches are not available.

You see this homemade cobbler has a crispy topping that is too die for. The secret ingredient to make this crispy topping is sugar and boiling water! Once the boiling water is poured over the sugar topping something magical starts to happens. I don't know what it is, but it makes the topping so crispy and delicious.

If you're looking for an easy dessert for your next barbecue, potluck or get together, give this magic peach cobbler a try. I just know everyone will love it.

You can also use fresh blackberries to make a blackberry version of the delicious cobbler. To make a Blackberry version follow the recipe above and substitute 2 1/2 cups fresh blackberries in place of peaches, omit the cinnamon and continue with the recipe as directed.
