Ingredients
• 2 cups Bisquick pancake and baking mix (I lean on Pillsbury for consistency)
• ¾ cup granulated sugar, plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for depth)
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup whole milk (swap almond or oat milk for dairy-free)
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 4–5 medium; canned work in a pinch—see FAQs)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (brightens the fruit)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (for warmth)
Directions
- Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with a bit of butter or cooking spray so nothing sticks—and trust me, you’ll want every last crumb. - Toss Peaches
In a medium bowl, combine sliced fresh peaches, ¼ cup sugar, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and a pinch of cinnamon. Stir gently until peaches glisten. (Tip: If your peaches are super sweet, skip the extra sugar.) - Mix Bisquick Batter
In a separate bowl, stir together Bisquick mix, remaining ½ cup sugar, and salt. Whisk in milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until you have a smooth batter—no big lumps. - Layer Batter and Fruit
Pour half of the batter into your prepared dish. Spread it evenly (you can use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon). Spoon the peach mixture over the batter, then dollop the remaining batter on top—gaps are fine. - Sprinkle and Bake
Dust the top with 2 tablespoons sugar and a light shake of cinnamon. Slide the dish into the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, until the crust is golden and the peach juices bubble around the edges. - Cool & Serve
Let the cobbler rest for 5–10 minutes—this helps the juices set a bit. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra comfort.

FAQs
Q: Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?
A: Sure—drain them well, pat dry, and reduce added sugar by a tablespoon or two to avoid extra sweetness.
Q: My topping sank—what happened?
A: If your batter is too thin, the fruit sinks. Use full-fat milk and avoid overmixing to keep the crust afloat.
Q: Is Bisquick Peach Cobbler vegan-friendly?
A: Swap eggs for flax “eggs” (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water each) and choose plant-based milk and butter.
Q: Can I make this cobbler ahead?
A: Assemble the night before, cover, and refrigerate; bake straight from the fridge—add a few extra minutes to bake time.
Q: Why is my crust dry?
A: Check oven accuracy—too hot can bake off moisture. Use an oven thermometer and lower heat slightly if needed.
Q: How do I prevent soggy bottoms?
A: Ensure your baking dish is preheated by placing it in the oven for 5 minutes before adding batter, or use a darker pan for better browning.
Q: Can I double this recipe for a crowd?
A: Absolutely—use a 9×13-inch pan, increase bake time by 10–15 minutes, and rotate halfway through.
Q: What’s the best peach variety?
A: Freestone peaches like Elberta or Donut peaches work wonders—juicy, sweet, and easy to slice.
