Indulge in the sweet symphony of flavors with our delectable Bourbon Peach Cobbler. This classic Southern dessert combines juicy peaches, a hint of bourbon, and a buttery, flaky crust. The aromatic bourbon enhances the natural sweetness of the peaches, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. With two irresistible recipe variations, you can choose between a traditional cobbler with a golden crust or a delightful skillet version with a crispy, caramelized topping. Both recipes promise an explosion of taste and texture that will leave you craving more.
Here are our top 3 tried and tested recipes!
BOURBON PEACH COBBLER
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the peaches, bourbon, 1/4 cup sugar, the cornstarch and cinnamon in a large bowl and toss to coat.
- Sift the flour, the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the baking powder and salt into a bowl. Cut 1 1/2 sticks of the butter into small pieces; add to the flour mixture and cut it in with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Pour in the cream and mix just until the dough comes together. Don't overwork; the dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
- Melt the remaining 1/2 stick butter in a10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the peach mixture and cook gently until heated through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart baking dish (or leave in the skillet). Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls over the warm peaches. (There can be gaps because the dough will puff up and spread as it bakes.) Brush the top with some heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar and a little extra cinnamon.
- Bake in the oven on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) until the cobbler is browned and the fruit is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm with the ice cream.
SOUTHERN BOURBON FRESH PEACH COBBLER
I've pieced it together from a few recipes to get the balance I like between fruit and topping. It's great for serving to guests and definitely best with some ice cream. This is also great vegan with water or apple juice replacing the buttermilk, and margarine instead of butter. You could even serve it with tofrutti ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Reserve peals and pits from peaches.
- Mix sliced peaches, sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon powder in a bowl and reserve.
- Combine bourbon (Maker's Mark is really good in this), orange juice, lemon juice, lemon zest, fruit jam, cinnamon stick, and peach scraps in a sauce pan, bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and reduce mixture for approximately 10 minutes.
- Mix flour, buttermilk, baking powder, baking soda and salt with a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg and set aside or in refrigerator for a few minutes. I have also used Dry Buttermilk Pancake Mix and 1/2 cup milk in place of the flour, buttermilk, baking powder and baking soda.
- Strain reduced orange juice mixture and mix with peaches.
- Pour melted butter into an 8x11" baking pan.
- Spoon dough mixture over butter evenly, but leaving some gaps (this helps the dough rise over the peaches later.
- Pour peaches over dough.
- Bake for about 1 hour at 350F, or until the crust has risen to top of cobbler and crisped slightly. Can add a bit of sugar to top of cobbler just before finished and place in broiler to get a crisper caramelized topping, but beware this can be tricky.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches. This will ensure that your cobbler is bursting with flavor.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. Just mix it until it comes together.
- Use a deep baking dish. This will prevent the cobbler from boiling over.
- Don't overfill the baking dish. Leave some room for the cobbler to bubble up.
- Bake the cobbler until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This will take about 45 minutes to an hour.
- Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This is the perfect way to enjoy this classic dessert.
