Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Cracker Barrel pancake mix, milk, melted butter, nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon until the mixture is light and well combined.
3
Pour the batter into an ungreased 8x8-inch baking pan, spreading it evenly.
4
Drain the peach slices (or diced peaches), reserving about 1 tablespoon of syrup from each can. Mix the drained peaches with 1/4 cup of sugar until dissolved.
5
Carefully pour the peach mixture over the batter, making sure not to stir or mix. The batter will rise and envelop the peaches while baking.
6
In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, softened butter, and sliced almonds. Use your hands to lightly break up the almonds and combine the mixture until crumbly. Do not add this topping yet to prevent burning.
7
Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
8
After 45 minutes, carefully remove the cobbler and sprinkle the almond crumble topping evenly on top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, keeping an eye on it to ensure the almonds don’t burn.
9
Once golden brown and bubbling, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
10
Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream to elevate the experience.
