Ingredients
  

For the Filling:

  • 6-7 medium fresh peaches or 4 cups canned peaches, drained
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter chilled
  • 1/2 cup almond milk or any non-dairy milk

Instructions
 

  • If you’re using fresh peaches, peel, remove the pit, and slice them up. If using canned peaches, drain them well.
  • Toss the peaches with coconut sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
  • Spread the peach mixture evenly in a greased 9x9-inch baking dish, ensuring it’s well distributed.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut sugar in another bowl.
  • Cut the chilled plant-based butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Gradually add the almond milk, stirring just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
  • Spoon the topping evenly across the peach filling, covering it well. It’s okay if some peaches peek through; the gaps allow the filling to bubble.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Bake the cobbler for 35-40 minutes until the topping turns golden brown and the filling starts bubbling along the edges.
  • Let the cobbler sit to cool down for 10-15 minutes, and let the filling firm up ideally.
  • Serve it warm with a scoop of vegan ice cream or a dollop of coconut whipped cream for the perfect finishing touch.

Notes

  • Peaches: Go for ripe, juicy peaches for the most delicious flavour. When fresh peaches aren’t available, canned or frozen peaches work just as well!
    Thickening: Don’t skip the cornstarch; it ensures the filling has the perfect syrupy consistency.
    Gluten-Free Option: Swap all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend for the topping.
    Storage: Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, and they’ll stay fresh for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to bring back that crispy topping.
