I’ve been craving peach cobbler for weeks and weeks and finally scored enough peaches at a good price to make cobbler. The only problem was that I didn’t want to turn on the oven. What to do? Turn it into a slow cooker recipe! I had to adjust a few things from the usual peach cobbler recipe I use, but this slow cooker peach cobbler came out lovely. I am not embarrassed to say that me and only me ate 3/4ths of the crockpot-full delicacy. Lord help me.

Slow cooker Peach Cobbler

half stick butter or margarine
4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced about 1/2 inch
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1 cup milk
1 cup sugar

Turn your slow cooker to high. Some require you to turn it to low for 5 minutes and then turn to high, so look at your users manual. Place the butter in the insert and let melt(should take about half an hour).
While waiting for the butter to melt, peel and slice the peaches. Put 1/2 cup sugar, peaches and 1 tsp vanilla in a medium bowl. Toss to coat peaches.
In another bowl, place flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and 1 cup of sugar. Stir together.
Once you see the butter melted and bubbling, place the milk in the flour bowl and stir together.
Pour the milk and flour mixture into the slow cooker insert, slowly!
Then, pour the peaches on top of the batter, slowly!
Cover and let cook on high for 3 hours.
After 3 hours, sprinkle some sugar on top of cobbler and place a chopstick or the handle of a heat proof spatula under the lid. This will create the crusty top. Let cook for at least 30 more minutes.

Once done, top with cool whip or, my favorite, vanilla ice cream. Delicious!

I never knew about crock pots requiring you to turn it to low for a few minutes and then to high….like warming up the car in the winter…ok, let’s not think about winter anymore ;) .
I’ll have to check my manual!

Looks yummy! Eat some for me! I’ve been put on a no sugar diet…arghhh.

Heather: use splenda or other sugar substitute

kathleen is right, heather: just use a sugar substitute. If you use splenda, you will have to lower the amount of sugar in the recipe because splenda and stivia are very sweet compared to regular sugar. I would say take a 1/4 out of each sugar part in the recipe. So, 1/4 splenda over the peaches and 3/4 in the batter.

Crock pot peach cobbler is one of my favs! To make with Splenda you use half as much as what any recipe calls for in sugar. So 1 cup a sugar but only 1/2 cup splenda.

I responded to your comment on my blog btw.

*Drool* Amiyrah, Did you know that Jenny loves, loves, well, she loves peach cobbler?
And to think that I could make it in my crock pot! The next time she comes home from college, I’m gonna surprise her. I’ll tell her to pick up the top of the crock pot and look inside. When she sees that’s it’s peach cobbler, she’ll think she died and went to heaven!
Seriously, I will get the “Hero of the Day Award”. Mahalo!

How do you know it is done?

After the 30 minutes where it develops the crusty top, it’s done. Simple!

The sides of the peach cobbler were burnt! How do you stop it from burning?

Melissa,

like any other slow cooker recipe, you have to know how your cooker operates. Some cook faster than others, like actual Crockpots, so you will have to keep an eye out for your meals during the last 30 minutes of the recipe. I’d say shave 30 minutes off of your time next time and make sure to tilt the top open for 20 minutes, tops. Hope that helps!

Can you double or triple this recipe for the larger family? Would you have to adjust the cooking time?

Anon,

Ive never tried to double the recipe, but you could always make another one in a second slow cooker.

I was wondering if peaches could be substituted with apples and if the amounts would be the same?

Ashley,

Absolutely! I use apples instead of peaches every fall and winter. I hope you enjoy.
