Ingredients You’ll Need
- 5 peaches (pitted, peeled & sliced): Fresh peaches bring juicy sweetness to the cobbler. You can substitute with canned peaches in syrup if fresh are out of season; just adjust the sugar accordingly.
- 1 tbsp water: Used to help soften the peaches as they cook, allowing their juices to meld beautifully.
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar: This sweetens the peach mixture, balancing the tartness. Feel free to reduce the amount if your peaches are very sweet.
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour: Helps thicken the peach filling, ensuring it’s not too runny. You can swap this for cornstarch for a gluten-free version.
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon: This spice infuses the dough with warmth and comfort, perfectly matching the peaches. Adjust to taste if you’re a cinnamon lover!
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg: Adds a subtle, warm flavor complementing the cinnamon and peaches; you can omit if nutmeg isn’t available or preferred.
- 1 package Pillsbury cinnamon roll dough: The star of the dish, this dough provides fluffy cinnamon rolls. You can use other brands if you prefer, but make sure they’re similar in size and flavor.
How to Make Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While your oven is warming up, grab a 9-inch square pan and give it a good spray with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the Peaches: Take the 5 peaches, pit, peel, and slice them into wedges. Place the sliced peaches in a medium-sized saucepan.
- Combine Ingredients: To the peaches, add the 1 tbsp water, 3 tbsp granulated sugar, 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg. Stir everything together gently, then cook over low to medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the peaches soften slightly, and the mixture is fragrant.
- Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom so every bite will have that delightful peach filling.
- Prepare the Cinnamon Roll Dough: Take the package of cinnamon roll dough and cut each roll into fourths. Evenly sprinkle the dough pieces over the top of the peaches, creating a lovely coverage.
- Bake Covered: Tent a piece of foil over the baking dish, ensuring it doesn’t touch the dough, and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes to allow the juices to bubble.
- Finish Baking: Carefully remove the foil and return the dish to the oven. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and the edges are bubbly.
- Drizzle with Icing: Once baked, take the cobbler out of the oven and let it cool slightly. Drizzle the icing that came with the package of cinnamon rolls over the top, letting it melt and enhance the aroma.
Storing & Reheating
To store your Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler, let it cool completely at room temperature, then cover tightly with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container. It will be good at room temperature for about 1 day or refrigerated for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze it for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply pop it in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until warm. Keep in mind that the texture will change slightly once frozen, but a fresh drizzle of icing can help revive that delightful taste and sweetness!
Chef’s Helpful Tips
- Be careful not to overcook the peaches; you want them tender but not mushy before baking.
- Ensure your cinnamon roll dough pieces are evenly distributed for consistent baking and flavor.
- If you’re not a fan of nutmeg, you can easily leave it out; cinnamon does a fantastic job on its own!
- For an extra flavor boost, mix in some fresh blueberries or raspberries with the peaches for added fruity goodness.
- If you’re making this ahead of time, you can prepare the peach mixture the day before and assemble everything right before baking.
Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler is a warm hug in dessert form, marrying the comforting flavors of cinnamon and peaches that you’ll remember fondly. Feel free to get creative with the add-ins or adjust the sweetness to your liking. Whichever way you choose to make it, this recipe is bound to become a favorite in your household.

Recipe FAQs
Can I use frozen peaches for this recipe?
Absolutely! Frozen peaches can be a wonderful substitute. Just remember to thaw them first and drain any excess water before cooking to avoid a watery filling.
What can I use instead of Pillsbury cinnamon roll dough?
You can use any brand of refrigerated cinnamon roll dough or even make your own from scratch if you’re feeling adventurous. It will add a personal touch to the cobbler.
How do I know when the cobbler is done baking?
You’ll know it’s done when the cinnamon rolls on top are golden brown and the edges of the peach filling are bubbling. If unsure, a toothpick inserted into the dough should come out clean.
Can I make this dessert ahead of time?
Definitely! You can prepare the peach filling a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just layer it and bake when you’re ready to serve for that freshly baked flavor!
