Peach Cobbler

The peach season usually starts in May and continues until late September. But if you are wondering what the best time of the year is to harvest or buy peaches, I would say July and August since this is generally when the peach season is at its peak. This may vary though from place to place. If you are in the United States, peach desserts would definitely complete your 4th of July celebration.

This type of fruit comes with amazing health benefits. It is loaded with nutrients and antioxidants. It may aid digestion, improve heart health, protect your skin, prevent certain types of cancer, reduce allergy symptoms, and many more. It is widely available and you can easily add it to your diet.

There are many desserts that you can make using peaches, but for me, peach Cobbler is the best. It is extremely easy to make even from scratch. And in case you crave this dish when peaches are not in season, no worries because you can still make it using canned peaches.

Peach cobbler is best served warm right after it is baked. You may also opt to serve it with a scoop of ice cream.

In case you have leftover, simply cover it and store it in the fridge. It should be good for up to 4 to 5 days.

How to reheat leftover peach cobbler? You can use the microwave or oven. To use the oven, remove the cobbler from the fridge, let it come to room temperature, and bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes.
