Use Fresh Peaches When Possible: Fresh peaches bring a natural sweetness and texture that canned peaches can’t quite match. If you’re short on time, though, canned peaches (in light syrup or water) work fine.
Layer Carefully: The key to the cobbler’s flavor lies in layering the donuts and peaches, allowing the cream mixture to soak through for a moist, pudding-like base.
Baking Dish Size: A standard 9×13-inch dish is ideal for this recipe. If you use a smaller dish, the cobbler may need a bit more time to cook evenly.
Add a Crumble Topping: For an extra crunch, you can add a crumble topping of oats, brown sugar, and butter before baking.
