Helpful Tips
- Vanilla Flavoring: Adding vanilla flavoring to the batter is optional but it enhances the flavor of the cobbler.
- Butter vs. Margarine: Both work well, but butter will give a richer flavor.
- Don’t Stir: Remember not to stir after adding the batter and peaches. This ensures a properly layered cobbler.
Serving Suggestions
- Ice Cream: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Whipped Cream: A dollop of whipped cream makes a great addition.
- Caramel Drizzle: For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle caramel sauce over the top before serving.
