Ingredients
Scale
Peach Filling
- 6–8 large fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (natural)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
Cobbler Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup plant-based milk
- 1/4 cup plant-based butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Peach Filling: Peel and slice 6-8 large fresh peaches. Toss the slices gently in a bowl with granulated sugar, lemon juice (natural), cinnamon, natural gelling agent, and a splash of apple cider vinegar (natural). Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to draw out the peaches’ natural juices and meld the flavors beautifully.
- Make the Cobbler Batter: In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk in the plant-based milk and melted plant-based butter until just combined to form a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix to keep the crust tender.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the peach mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. Spoon the batter over the peaches in dollops, covering as much surface as possible but leaving some fruit visible for a rustic look.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling. Let it cool slightly before serving to allow the juices to thicken.
Notes
- Use fully ripe peaches for maximum sweetness and juiciness.
- Allow the peach mixture to macerate before baking to deepen flavor.
- Spread the batter evenly over the filling for balanced baking and texture.
- Keep an eye on the oven temperature as baking times may vary.
- Serve warm with plant-based vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (plant-based) for the best experience.
