What To Serve With It
I love serving my peach cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top. The cold, creamy sweetness balances the warm, juicy peaches perfectly, and it’s a combo that never disappoints. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, try both—trust me, it’s worth it!
Vanilla Ice Cream
Few things pair better with a warm slice of peach cobbler than a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream. I love how its cool, smooth texture balances the cobbler’s warmth. For vanilla variations, try bean, French, or even a hint of bourbon-infused vanilla. Don’t forget ice cream toppings—a sprinkle of cinnamon or crushed nuts adds extra flair. It’s a simple yet perfect match that always feels like a treat.
Whipped Cream
While vanilla ice cream is a classic choice, whipped cream offers another delicious way to top your peach cobbler. I love experimenting with whipped cream variations, like adding a hint of cinnamon or vanilla for extra flavor. Homemade whipped cream is my go-to because it’s light, fluffy, and takes only minutes to make. Trust me, it’s worth the little effort to elevate your dessert!
