Easiest cake to make ever. I love that you just dump it all in the pan. So simple!

This was easy and tasty, but not nearly enough peaches for us. It was mostly cobbler with some peach thrown in and I added 5 cups. Next time I would definitely add 6-8 cups of fruit. I also cut the sugar in the fruit to 1/2 cup and it was still very sweet. I did add the cinnamon and would try nutmeg too next time. Served it with vanilla ice cream.. Thanks!

This was easy to make and delicious. I took the advice of others and reduces the amount of sugar with the peaches to 1/2 cup. Next time, I might also increase the amount of peaches. Great basic recipe for any cobbler.

Awesome recipe except a little too sweet. With less sugar, it would be perfection. Otherwise, it tasted fantastic.

My fiancee is a chef and doesn't really enjoy sweet things, but he does like peaches. So when I found this recipe and made it for him he went crazy. He told me it was the best cobbler he has ever had and he would serve it at his restaurant. Most decidedly a keeper! I thought it had all the peaches it needed
