I second the suggestions for Peach Cobbler or Peach Pie!
Here is my wife's cobbler recipe. You can use it with peaches of apples.

OOOPS!
I just noticed you have canned peaches rather than fresh. Here is a recipe using canned peaches.
Peach Cobbler
Bert Kaufman, aka Tinker
2 c. flour
1? c. white sugar
? c. brown sugar
? c. milk
3 tsp. baking powder
? tsp. salt
1 large can sliced peaches in heavy syrup
2 sticks (? pound each) margarine
Combine 1 cup of the flour, 1 cup of the white sugar, the milk, baking powder and salt with half the liquid from the peaches. Melt half a stick of the margarine and add it to the batter, and stir. Melt half a stick of the margarine in the baking pan or dish. Pour the batter into the pan, over the melted margarine. Add the peaches. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon to taste.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes. While it is baking, make the streusel topping. Melt the remaining stick of margarine and mix with the 1/2 cup of white sugar, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and 1 cup of flour. The topping should be crumbly. After the cobbler has baked for 30 minutes, add the streusel topping and bake for an additional 15 to 30 minutes.
