What kind of pan can I use?

Although this post features the peach cobbler cooked in a glass dish, we no longer recommend cooking with glass in your pressure cooker. It has come to my attention that a private study showed it is not safe and that Instant Pot does not recommend using glass. 

However, we have a GREAT alternative! I love, love, love my Fat Daddio 7-inch Cheesecake Pan and they also make a cake pan that will fit perfectly inside your 6-quart or 8-quart instant pot. You can order the Fat Daddio 7-Inch Cake Pan on Amazon. Both of these pans are made from Anodized Aluminum and are considered safe to use inside the instant pot.

Help! My peach cobbler came out looking undercooked!

When you take your peach cobbler out of the Instant Pot, the cobbler topping may still look a bit gooey. This is completely normal. As your cobbler cools, it will continue to harden into a chewy and delicious cobbler topping.

Do I eat it warm or cold?

Peach cobbler can be eaten either warm or cold. Just make sure you let it sit for at least an hour (or longer) before serving. After that, you can serve it at room temperature, chilled, or reheated.

Serve it with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
