Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler Skillet
Cinnamon Roll Peach Cobbler Skillet is an easy, comforting dessert made with juicy peaches, warm cinnamon, and sweet vanilla, all baked over a soft cinnamon roll crust in a cast iron skillet. This cozy dessert comes together quickly and tastes like a homemade cobbler with a fun, family-friendly twist.
Our local farm stand has so many fresh peaches this time of year, and my family always looks forward to enjoying them. I love having my grandchildren in the kitchen with me, teaching them both simple recipes and family favorites. This cobbler was one we created together—and it quickly became a favorite. Anything made with cinnamon rolls is always a big hit with the little ones!
This dessert reminds me of a cross between monkey bread and peach cobbler. There is just nothing better than warm, baked peaches with a soft, cinnamon-swirled crust. And baked in a cast iron skillet, it has that beautiful rustic charm that makes it even more special.

Ingredients List:
4 cups peaches, sliced (fresh or frozen)
granulated sugar
ground cinnamon
water
vanilla extract
1 can (12.4oz/8 count) Pillsbury refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing

INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 10-inch cast iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray.

- Arrange the cinnamon roll pieces evenly in the bottom of the skillet, cinnamon side up.
- Spoon the warm peach mixture evenly over the cinnamon rolls.
