Triple Crust Peach Cobbler

Triple Crust Peach Cobbler: The Only Peach Dessert Recipe You’ll Ever Need

  • Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

  • 6–8 large fresh peaches (or 48 oz canned, drained)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch or flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 egg + 1 tablespoon water (egg wash)
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cold butter (for topping)

  5. Peel and slice peaches.

  7. Let filling rest 15 minutes.

  10. Add half the peach filling.
  11. Roll second dough and layer over peaches.
  12. Add butter pats and remaining peaches.
  13. Roll third dough and place on top.
