Winter can be a difficult time for a fruit lover. Aside from certain citrus fruits (which are great… don’t get me wrong), not much is in season, which means that all of the other fruits in the supermarket are (a) more expensive and (b) worse quality. Not a good combination. So what’s a fruit-loving girl to do?!

Here’s the answer: find as many baked goods as you can that use either frozen or canned fruit. I actually really like using frozen fruit in baking because frozen fruit is super easy to keep on hand and works really well in most baking applications. But I had never really given canned fruit much thought. I’m not sure why… I guess anything canned just sounds of lower quality in my head. But really, that’s totally untrue. So when I saw this recipe for a peach cobbler using canned peaches and just a few pantry staples, I was intrigued. And I decided it was time to get over my anti-canned fruit bias.
