How To Make Longhorn Steakhouse Grilled Peach Cobbler

Step One: Spread the peach pie filling out in your Instant Pot.

Step Two: Meanwhile, melt the butter in the microwave. Prepare your cake batter: Pour your cake mix and spices into a large mixing bowl and stir together. Then, when the butter is melted, add it to the cake mix and spices.

Step Three: Mix well. When it’s completely blended, it will resemble crumble topping or resembles coarse meal.

Step Four: Spread it so it looks even. Add your Instant Pot Lid, close the valve to the sealed position, and set the pressure cook cooking time for 10 minutes at high pressure; the vent should be sealed. Let it go and naturally release. Then remove the Instant Pot Lid, transfer it to a large serving bowl, or scoop into individual serving bowls, and serve with your favorite vanilla ice cream.

Longhorn Steakhouse Grilled Peach Cobbler Recipe Tips
- Use Canned Peaches with Juice: For extra flavor and moisture, use canned peaches with their juice or syrup. This helps keep the cobbler moist and sweet.
- Layering: Place the peaches at the bottom of the Instant Pot and the topping on top. This ensures even cooking and prevents the topping from becoming soggy.
- Preventing Burn Notice: Add a bit of water or juice from the canned peaches to the bottom of the pot to prevent the burn notice. This helps create steam and prevents the cobbler from sticking.
- Use a Trivet: If your cobbler topping tends to burn, place a trivet in the Instant Pot and set your baking dish on top of it. This helps create a buffer between the direct heat and the cobbler.
- Cake Mix Topping: For a quick and easy topping, use a boxed cake mix. Simply sprinkle it over the peaches and add melted butter or water to create a crumbly topping.
- Natural Release: Allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure for about 10 minutes before doing a quick release. This helps the cobbler set and prevents it from being too runny.
- Crisp the Topping: If you prefer a crispier topping, transfer the cobbler to an oven-safe dish and broil for a few minutes after cooking in the Instant Pot.
- Add Spices: Enhance the flavor by adding cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract to the peaches. These spices complement the sweetness of the peaches and add depth to the cobbler.
- Serve with Ice Cream: Peach cobbler is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. The cold creaminess pairs perfectly with the warm, sweet cobbler.
- Experiment with Toppings: Try different toppings like oats, granola, or nuts for added texture and flavor. This can make your cobbler unique and extra delicious.
