A delicious peach cobbler with a topping that tastes just like an oatmeal cookie. Made with fresh peaches this Oatmeal Cookie Peach Cobbler makes a wonderful summer dessert.
Peach Cobbler is maybe my favorite dessert to make during the summer. Blueberry Cobbler is a close second. It’s so easy, so simple, and so delicious. Serve it warm with a scoop of cold vanilla ice cream and it’s a dessert you won’t soon forget.
Peach Cobbler With Oatmeal Cookie Topping
This southern peach cobbler recipe is a little bit different from the normal peach cobbler I make. Instead of a biscuit-like topping, this topping tastes just like an oatmeal cookies- and it’s absolutely delicious. It’s full of fresh summer peaches topped with a unique oatmeal cookie topping and it is absolutely perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The cobbler bakes up golden brown with crispy edges and a soft, chewy center creating a dessert that is part peach cobbler and part oatmeal cookie.
Very easy and it was delicious! 6 cups seemed like a lot of peaches for a 9 x 9 pan, but it wasn’t. My peaches were very ripe and juicy and maybe should’ve added a little more flour but it was still very good
My daughter had to be scolded for trying to eat all of the topping off. But not scolded too badly. One bite of the topping and you’ll want to eat it all too. The topping is a little bit chewy, more than a little bit sweet, and oh so good.
How To Make Oatmeal Cookie Peach Cobbler
(More detailed instructions and video in recipe card below.)
- Beat granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter with an electric mixer.
- Add vanilla extract and egg.
- Combine flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
- Add to butter mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
- Toss peaches with sugar, flour, and lemon juice. Add to greased baking dish.
- Drop spoonfuls of topping over peaches. Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
Do The Peaches Need To Be Peeled?
Peeling the peaches creates the best texture, but if the peaches are very ripe you can leave some of the skins on.
Can Frozen Peaches Be Used?
Yes! Thaw them first and drain off any excess liquid.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with:
- Vanilla ice cream
- Fresh Whipped Cream
- Caramel Sauce
The contrast of warm cobbler and cold ice cream is one of the classic appeals of peach cobbler.
Recipe Tips
Be sure to use very ripe peaches when making a peach cobbler. If your peaches aren’t at peak ripeness, you may want to add some more sugar to the filling. Since the topping is very sweet and I like to put a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on my cobbler, I don’t make the filling all that sweet.
Oatmeal Cookie Peach Cobbler is one of our summer favorites and it is sure to become one of your favorites too.

Yumm. This cobbler looks absolutely incredible… I am drooling… absolutely delicious.. 😀
WOW! this looks beyond delicious! Like out of this world tasty! YUM!! And I’m literally salivating over here! YUM 🙂 Great recipe!
The topping on a cobbler is my favorite part since I don’t love cooked fruit. This is right up my alley and I need it right this second.
This looks SO GOOD! I am just like your daughter, and I would want to eat all the topping off this. Whenever I scoop myself cobbler, I always do a “diagonal” scoop so I get a ton of topping on top of the fruit. Sneaky me!
Yes, yes, and yes…it looks delicious, especially with a scoop of ice cream…YUM!
Hope you are having a fabulous week Christin 😀
This looks amazing Christin! I love peaches and to add an oatmeal cookie to it? Perfection!
This looks like the best peach cobbler ever, Christin! This is my all-time favorite dessert (I often request this or peach pie for my birthday), so I’m loving the fact that you made it an “oatmeal cookie” cobbler! Looks amazing! Pinned!
This is insanely mouthwatering! I love love love the oat topping – I would have joined your daughter!
