What Is A Fruit Cobbler?
Simply put, a fruit cobbler is a dessert that is made with various different fruits that have been combined with sugar and (usually) warm spices. The fruit is then layered with a biscuit-like topping and baked until the center is warm and liquidy and the top is crisp and golden brown.
What’s the Difference Between a Cobbler and a Crisp?
Although similar and often used interchangeably, cobblers and crisps are not the same things.
Crisps are desserts that are made with a fruit filling and topped with a combination of oats, flour, butter, and sugar. They also sometimes contain nuts, too. The oat topping completely covers the fruit and bakes into a slightly crispy consistency.
Cobblers on the other hand have a fruit filling as well. Yet, they are layered with a biscuit-like topping that is light and flaky instead of being more crispy and crunchy like that of a crisp.
Peach Strawberry Cobbler Ingredients
When it comes to cobblers, they can be made with a wide variety of fruits and spices. However, for this recipe, we decided to take full advantage of all of the yummy summer produce using up the fresh peaches and strawberries we had on hand! Here’s the full list of what you’ll need:
- Peaches
- Strawberries
- Granulated Sugar
- Light Brown Sugar
- Cinnamon
- Vanilla Extract
- All-Purpose Flour
- Lemon Juice & Half of a Lemon
- Refrigerated Pie Crust
How to Make This Easy Peach Strawberry Cobbler Recipe
One of the most appealing things about fruit cobbler recipes is how easy they are to make! Just toss everything together, put it in the oven, and you’ll be on your way.
- Preheat your oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
- Add all of the ingredients to a baking dish, and stir to combine.
- Cut the pie crust into squares.
- Layer it evenly over the fruit mixture.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes.
How to Store Peach Strawberry Cobbler
To store leftovers, let them cool completely, place them in an airtight container, and keep them in the fridge for up to 4 days. Or, store them in the freezer for up to 3 months instead.
To reheat, let your cobbler thaw in the fridge overnight. Then, warm it in the oven for about 20 minutes or until it is heated through, and enjoy!
Can I Use Frozen Fruit?
We prefer to stick with fresh peaches and strawberries. Frozen versions will have too much liquid and create a runny cobbler. However, if you’re in a pinch, you can use frozen fruit as long as you let it thaw and drain the extra liquid first!

I can’t wait to try this! I’m going to use fresh pineapple since I don’t like peaches. I’m going to use the same amount as the strawberries. To freeze…can you assemble it and put it in the freezer take it out to thaw the night before and bake according to recipe?
Yes! When you’re ready to bake the crisp, remove it from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator overnight to thaw. Thawing in the refrigerator ensures even thawing.
Once thawed, preheat your oven according to the recipe’s instructions and bake the fruit crisp until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling. The baking time may be slightly longer than if you were baking the crisp immediately, so keep an eye on it. Let us know how it turns out!
my family loves this recipe! it’s delicious and easy to throw together! I’m going to try assembling and freezing soon to see how it turns out!
We’re so happy to hear this, Caitlin! Please let us know how it goes!
