Peaches and cherries are two summer favorites that are even better together. You can’t go wrong putting these two in slow cooker cobbler. This dessert is incredibly easy to make and sure to win you rave reviews. All you need to finish it off is a scoop of cold, creamy vanilla ice cream.
The fruit filling is perfectly sweet, meaning just sweet enough without being cloying. Whether you use fresh or frozen fruit, the flavors really shine through. A flaky, buttery cake topping turns golden brown and provides just the right contrast in texture.
