The contrast between the tender, spiced peaches and the soft, cinnamon-infused dough creates a truly unforgettable dessert experience.
Embrace Convenience with Canned Peaches
While I certainly have an undying love for the peak season sweetness of fresh peaches, the true genius of this particular cinnamon rolls peach cobbler recipe lies in its adaptability. There’s absolutely no need to wait for a specific peach season to enjoy this comforting dessert! You can easily make your cinnamon roll peach cobbler using readily available canned peaches. This eliminates the tedious steps of peeling and slicing, and guarantees that your peaches are consistently ripe, tender, and bursting with delicious flavor, every single time.
Of course, if you happen to have an abundance of fresh peaches from the farmer’s market, or a stash of frozen peaches in your freezer, feel free to use those as well! For fresh peaches, simply peel and slice them, aiming for about 4 cups. If using frozen, thaw and drain them thoroughly before incorporating them into the recipe. No matter which type of peaches you choose, this easy cinnamon roll peach cobbler is guaranteed to be a winner, delivering a warm hug in every bite!
The warm spices in this recipe perfectly complement the sweet peaches and cinnamon rolls. If you find yourself drawn to these aromatic flavors, you’ll definitely want to explore my Chai Spice Bundt Cake, which offers another wonderful blend of comforting spices.
Cobbler vs. Crumble: Understanding the Delicious Difference
Many people wonder about the distinction between a fruit cobbler and a fruit crumble. This particular cinnamon rolls peach cobbler features a unique, wonderfully gooey, and soft topping, thanks to the creative use of cinnamon rolls. The dough softens and melds with the peaches, creating a truly comforting and slightly cakey texture on top.
A traditional crumble, on the other hand, is characterized by its crisp, buttery, streusel-like topping. This topping is typically made from a mixture of flour, sugar, butter, and sometimes oats or nuts, which bakes up into a delightfully crunchy layer. Both desserts offer a fantastic way to enjoy fruit, but they deliver distinct textural experiences.
While both are undeniably tasty, a cobbler tends to be more doughy and cake-like, especially in this innovative recipe where the cinnamon rolls contribute a soft, sweet doughiness. A crumble offers a crisper, more crumbly topping. In this recipe, the cinnamon rolls don’t just act as a topping; they elevate this delicious dessert to an entirely new level, infusing it with extra cinnamon spice and a wonderfully tender bite.
If you’re specifically seeking that crunchy, crumbly texture, I recommend exploring recipes like my Strawberry Crisp!
Key Ingredients for Your Peach Cobbler Masterpiece
For a detailed breakdown of all ingredients and precise measurements, please refer to the recipe card below. However, here’s a quick overview of the simple yet essential components you’ll need to create this amazing cinnamon rolls peach cobbler:
- Canned Peaches: The ultimate convenience! While fresh or frozen peaches work beautifully, canned peaches make this cinnamon rolls peach cobbler effortlessly accessible all year. They arrive perfectly ripe and require no peeling or slicing – truly the star of the show! Make sure to drain them well before using.
- Granulated Sugar: This provides the perfect level of sweetness, balancing the tartness of the peaches and enhancing their natural flavor. If you prefer a richer, deeper sweetness, feel free to substitute a portion or all of it with brown sugar.
- Lemon Juice: A touch of fresh lemon juice is crucial. It brightens the peach filling, adding a lovely tartness that prevents the dessert from being overly sweet and truly makes the peach flavor pop.
- Butter: We’ll use butter for greasing our baking dish, ensuring a non-stick surface, and a generous amount of melted butter in the filling. I often opt for salted butter as it enhances the overall flavor; if you use unsalted butter, simply add a small pinch of salt to the filling.
- Cornstarch: This is your secret weapon for achieving a perfectly thickened, luscious peach filling. It creates that beautiful, slightly gooey consistency without making the filling too runny or too stiff.
- Nutmeg: While cinnamon is the dominant spice from the cinnamon rolls, a hint of nutmeg in the fruit filling provides a warm, aromatic complement. It’s a subtle addition that adds a layer of complex flavor. For more spice-infused delights, explore my Cake Mix Apple Cobbler!
- Vanilla Extract: For the most authentic and rich flavor, I always recommend using pure vanilla extract. Alternatively, you can even make your own for an extra special touch.
- Grands Cinnamon Rolls: This is the ingenious “secret” ingredient for our cobbler topping! Instead of using smaller Pillsbury cinnamon rolls, like those in my Pillsbury Cinnamon Roll Donuts, you’ll want the larger Grands refrigerated cinnamon rolls. They provide a substantial, fluffy, and incredibly delicious topping. The icing that comes with the sweet rolls is perfect for drizzling, but a homemade cream cheese frosting would also be an amazing addition!
- Vanilla Ice Cream: There’s truly nothing better than a warm serving of cinnamon rolls peach cobbler paired with a generous scoop of cold, melting vanilla ice cream. The contrast of temperatures and textures is simply divine!

Essential Equipment for Your Cobbler Creation
You’ll be happy to know that making this old-fashioned cinnamon rolls peach cobbler doesn’t require any fancy tools. A standard 9×9 baking pan is ideal for this recipe, providing the perfect surface area for the peaches and cinnamon rolls to bake beautifully. If you only have an 8×8 pan or a pie pan, those will work perfectly fine too, though the baking time might vary slightly.
To prepare your delicious peach filling mixture, a small saucepan will be your best friend. This allows you to simmer the peaches and other ingredients until they reach that ideal, thick consistency. And, of course, every baker needs their basics!

How to Make Peach Cobbler with Cinnamon Rolls and Canned Peaches: Step-by-Step
Ready to create this incredible dessert? The recipe card below provides detailed step-by-step instructions, complete with full ingredient measurements and even a helpful recipe video! But for a quick overview of the process, here’s how you’ll bring this simple yet spectacular recipe to life:
Over medium heat, combine peaches, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, nutmeg, and butter in a saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Unroll the Grands cinnamon rolls and cut each one into small, bite-sized pieces.
Pour the warm peach filling into your buttered 9×9 baking pan (or another 3-quart baking dish). Arrange the cut cinnamon roll pieces evenly over the top of the peaches.
Bake in your preheated oven until the cinnamon roll topping is beautifully golden brown and the peach mixture is delightfully bubbly around the edges. Once baked, drizzle with the reserved cinnamon roll icing and serve warm with a generous scoop of vanilla bean ice cream!
Hint: For a smooth, pourable icing, simply microwave the cinnamon roll icing for a few seconds. This makes it much easier to drizzle evenly over your warm cinnamon rolls peach cobbler, creating a perfect glaze!
The Ultimate 2-Ingredient Peach Cobbler with Cinnamon Rolls
Craving this delicious dessert but want to make it even simpler? I’ve got you covered with an incredibly easy hack! To create a truly effortless 2-ingredient peach cobbler, you can entirely skip preparing the peach filling from scratch. Instead, simply use two cans of pre-made peach pie filling. Pour the pie filling into your prepared baking dish, top with the cut cinnamon roll pieces, bake, and serve as normal! It’s an unbelievably quick and delicious way to enjoy this comforting treat.

Storing and Reheating Your Peach Cobbler
One of the great things about this cinnamon roll peach cobbler is that it stores well, allowing you to enjoy leftovers for days! To keep it fresh, make sure to let the cobbler cool completely to room temperature. Once cooled, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to four days.
When you’re ready to enjoy it again, individual servings can be easily reheated in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds until warm. For the entire cobbler, cover it loosely with foil and reheat in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through and bubbly. Reheating can help bring back some of that fresh-baked gooeyness, especially if you add a fresh scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Frequently Asked Questions About Peach Cobbler
While we won’t be doing it in this specific cinnamon roll peach cobbler recipe, pouring a little heavy cream over traditional cinnamon rolls before baking is a fantastic trick! It makes them incredibly rich, extra moist, and ensures they bake up into the most fluffy cinnamon rolls ever! It’s the same technique I swear by for my Oreo Cinnamon Rolls.
The inclusion of cinnamon in peach cobbler often comes down to personal preference or regional variations. For my homemade peach filling, I particularly enjoy the subtle warmth that just nutmeg provides. However, cinnamon is always a welcome spice in fruit desserts! In this recipe, the Pillsbury cinnamon rolls generously provide that wonderful cinnamon flavor, perfectly complementing the sweet peaches without needing additional cinnamon in the filling itself.
The term “cobbler dough” can actually refer to a few different things, depending on the style of cobbler! Many traditional Southern-style cobblers do feature a topping that resembles or uses pie crust dough. Other recipes opt for a biscuit-like topping, creating a more scone-like texture. And some cobblers even bake up with a cake-like batter surrounding the fruit filling. In this incredibly easy recipe, our cobbler topping comes straight from a tube of refrigerated cinnamon roll dough, offering a unique, soft, and sweet twist that’s super simple!

Absolutely, you sure can! If you’re lucky enough to have fresh peaches on hand, just peel and slice them, aiming for about 4 cups in total. Then, incorporate them into the peach filling mixture and proceed with the recipe as usual. For frozen peaches, simply thaw and drain them thoroughly before adding them to the filling for the best results. Both fresh and frozen options work wonderfully, so use whatever is most convenient for you!
The beauty of this cinnamon roll topping is its versatility! While peaches are fantastic, you can certainly experiment with other fruits. Apples, blueberries, cherries, or mixed berries would all be delicious. Just ensure any canned fruits are well-drained, and fresh or frozen fruits are prepared similarly to peaches (peeled, sliced if needed, and thawed/drained if frozen).
Top Tip for the Best Experience
For an absolutely unforgettable dessert experience, always be sure to serve this cinnamon roll peach cobbler warm, straight from the oven, with a generous scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream. The melting ice cream cascading over the warm, gooey cinnamon rolls and tender peaches creates a symphony of flavors and textures that is simply divine!
