- Cutting board
- Sharp knife
- Mixing spoon or spatula
- Oven mitts
How to Make Peach Cobbler Bubble Up Bake
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. Make sure the bottom and sides are coated to help prevent sticking.
Set the baking dish aside while you prepare the cinnamon rolls and peach filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Cinnamon Rolls
Open both cans of refrigerated cinnamon rolls.
Set the icing containers aside. You’ll use the icing later to drizzle over the warm dessert.
Place the cinnamon rolls on a cutting board and cut each individual raw cinnamon roll into 4 small pieces.
Try to cut the pieces into reasonably similar sizes so they bake more evenly.
The cinnamon roll pieces will expand as they bake, creating the soft, bubbly texture that gives this dessert its name.
Step 3: Combine the Ingredients
Add the cinnamon roll pieces to a large mixing bowl.
Pour in both cans of peach pie filling.
Sprinkle the 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon over the mixture.
Using a large spoon or spatula, gently toss everything together until the cinnamon roll pieces are coated with the peach filling and cinnamon.
Take your time mixing so the pieces are distributed throughout the peaches.
The peach pie filling should coat the cinnamon roll pieces, creating a sweet and fruity mixture ready for baking.
Step 4: Transfer to the Baking Dish
Pour the peach and cinnamon roll mixture into your prepared 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spread the mixture into an even layer.
Make sure the cinnamon roll pieces are distributed throughout the dish rather than packed into one area.
This helps the pieces bake more evenly and allows the peach filling to spread between them.
Step 5: Bake Until Golden
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
Bake for approximately 35–40 minutes, or until the cinnamon roll pieces are golden and baked through.
The exact baking time can vary depending on your oven, the size of the pieces, and how evenly the mixture is spread.
Start checking around the 35-minute mark.
You’re looking for:
- Golden-brown cinnamon roll pieces
- A warm, bubbling peach filling
- Cinnamon roll dough that is cooked through rather than raw in the center
If the top begins browning too quickly while the center still needs more time, loosely cover the dish with foil and continue baking until done.
Step 6: Add the Icing
Once the bake is finished, carefully remove it from the oven.
Allow it to cool slightly while it remains warm.
Open the reserved icing containers and drizzle the icing over the top of the cinnamon roll peach cobbler.
The warmth of the bake helps the icing soften and spread over the golden cinnamon roll pieces.
For a pretty presentation, drizzle the icing in thin lines across the entire dish.
You can also add a little extra cinnamon if you enjoy a stronger cinnamon flavor.
Step 7: Serve Warm
Spoon the warm Peach Cobbler Bubble Up Bake into serving bowls.
For an extra-special dessert, serve each portion with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The warm peach filling and cinnamon roll pieces pair beautifully with cold, creamy ice cream.
You can also serve it with whipped cream or enjoy it on its own.
Helpful Tips for the Best Results
Cut the Cinnamon Rolls Into Small Pieces
Cutting each cinnamon roll into 4 pieces helps the dough bake more evenly and makes it easier for the peach filling to surround the pieces.
Avoid leaving the rolls whole, since large pieces may take longer to cook through.
Spread the Mixture Evenly
After transferring the mixture to the baking dish, spread it into an even layer.
This helps prevent some areas from becoming overbrowned while other parts remain underbaked.
Check the Center Before Serving
The center of the bake should be cooked through.
If the top looks golden but the middle still contains raw dough, continue baking for a few more minutes and check again.
A golden top alone does not guarantee that all the dough is fully baked.
Don’t Forget the Icing
The reserved icing is one of the best parts of this recipe!
Drizzle it over the bake while it’s still warm for a soft, sweet finish.
Let It Cool Slightly
Allowing the dessert to rest for a few minutes after baking gives the peach filling time to settle and makes serving easier.
It will still be deliciously warm without being piping hot.
Delicious Ways to Serve It
With Vanilla Ice Cream
This is a classic combination. The cold vanilla ice cream melts over the warm peaches and cinnamon rolls, creating a creamy dessert that tastes like a peach cobbler sundae.
With Whipped Cream
A spoonful of whipped cream adds a light, airy contrast to the sweet and fruity bake.
With Fresh Peaches
If peaches are in season, add a few fresh peach slices on top before serving for a beautiful presentation.
For Breakfast or Brunch
Although this recipe makes a wonderful dessert, it can also be served as a sweet breakfast casserole or brunch treat.
Pair it with coffee, tea, or a glass of milk.
Variations to Try
Add a Little Extra Cinnamon
If you love warm cinnamon flavor, sprinkle a little additional cinnamon over the top before baking.
Keep in mind that the original recipe already includes ground cinnamon, so add more according to your taste.
Add Chopped Pecans
For a little crunch, sprinkle chopped pecans over the mixture before baking.
The nutty flavor pairs beautifully with peaches and cinnamon.
Try a Vanilla Glaze
If you want a little extra sweetness, you can prepare a simple vanilla glaze using powdered sugar and a small amount of milk.
Drizzle it over the finished bake alongside the reserved icing.
Add a Touch of Nutmeg
A small pinch of ground nutmeg can add a warm, bakery-style flavor to the peach filling.
Use it sparingly so it doesn’t overpower the peaches.
Serve With Caramel
A light drizzle of caramel sauce over the finished dessert creates a rich, sweet variation.
Caramel and peaches are a delicious combination, especially when paired with cinnamon rolls.
Storage Instructions
If you have leftovers, allow the bake to cool before storing.
Place leftovers in an airtight container or cover the baking dish tightly.
Refrigerate and enjoy within 3–4 days for best quality.
Because this dessert contains cooked fruit filling and baked dough, refrigeration is a good choice for storing leftovers.
How to Reheat
To enjoy leftovers warm, place an individual serving in the microwave and heat in short intervals until warmed through.
You can also reheat portions in the oven.
If reheating the entire dish, cover it loosely with foil to help prevent the top from becoming too dry.
Add a little fresh icing after reheating if desired.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned peach pie filling?
This recipe was developed using canned peach pie filling, which provides sweetness and a ready-made sauce.
Fresh peaches can be used in a different version, but you would need to prepare a sweet peach filling with enough liquid and thickener to replace the canned pie filling.
Can I use a different brand of cinnamon rolls?
Yes. The recipe calls for Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls with Icing, but another refrigerated cinnamon roll brand may work.
Check the package size and adjust the amount if it differs significantly from the original recipe.
Can I prepare this dessert ahead of time?
For the best texture, assemble and bake it close to serving time.
If preparing ahead, keep the ingredients refrigerated as directed on their packages and avoid leaving raw dough mixed with the fruit filling at room temperature.
Why is it called a bubble up bake?
The name refers to the way the pieces of dough puff up as they bake among the fruit filling.
The cinnamon roll pieces become soft and golden, creating a bubbly, cobbler-style dessert.
Can I freeze leftovers?
The texture of baked cinnamon rolls and fruit filling may change after freezing and thawing.
For the best results, refrigerate leftovers and enjoy them within a few days.
