Substitutions
You can definitely use an alternative sweetener. But go ahead and cook the peaches and sweetener a bit to make the syrup. Since the sugar draws the moisture out of the peaches to create the syrup, you may not get the sauce that you want with a different sweetener.

How to store Fluffy Sourdough Peach Cobbler
Once again, I don’t think this will stick around long enough to need to store it. But, it should stay fresh in the fridge for about a week. It might freeze okay, but I haven’t tired. It’s such a delicious sourdough recipe, it gets eaten completely at the first serving.
