Make-Ahead Instructions

To make peach cobbler ahead of time, assemble it in an oven-safe dish, but don’t bake it. Cover it tightly and store it in the fridge for up to two days or in the freezer for up to three months. When ready to bake, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight, then bake as directed. Add 10-15 minutes to the bake time if it’s still partially frozen.

Serving and Storage Instructions

Serve peach cobbler warm after it’s had a chance to cool and set. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for 3-5 days or freeze them for up to 6 months and enjoy them chilled or warm them up in the microwave.
