- Using a sharp pairing knife, cut at least three slits in your crust, and then sprinkle the remaining sugar evenly out overtop. Spread the dots of butter evenly out over the crust.1/2 tsp granulated sugar, 1 tbsp salted butter

- Let rest for 5 full minutes.

Notes
- You can use thawed frozen peaches but the cobbler filling will be on the thinner side.
- While we use our quick and easy homemade pie crust in this recipe, you could use one store bought pie crust instead. Keep in mind using a store bought crust will yield a thinner (even crispier) crust
- Don't forget to cut slits in the top of your crust for vents to allow steam to escape during baking. This step ensures your crust and filling both bake properly.
- The length of baking time may vary based on the thickness of your crust. Thicker crust will take longer.
- While this cobbler is delicious served on its own, we highly recommend serving warm with scoops of rich vanilla ice cream.
