Ingredients You’ll Need for Vegan Peach Cobbler
- 6-7 ripe peaches (peeled and sliced)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup soy milk (or other plant-based milk)
- 1/4 cup melted vegan butter (or coconut oil)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Let’s Make It Together
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Toss everything together until the peaches are evenly coated.
Transfer the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the non-dairy milk, melted vegan butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler batter over the top of the peaches in the baking dish, trying to cover them as evenly as possible.
Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the cobbler topping is golden brown.
Once done, remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream or dairy-free whipped cream for that extra special touch!
Variations & Creative Twists
Berry Addition: Mix in some fresh blueberries or raspberries for a tart and colorful contrast. The berry juices will mingle beautifully with the peaches.
Crispy Topping: For an extra crunchy topping, sprinkle some rolled oats or chopped nuts on top of the batter before baking.
Spiced Up: Kick up the spices a notch by adding a pinch of ginger or cardamom for a warm twist on flavor.
Peach Melba: Serve your fresh peach cobbler with a drizzle of raspberry sauce for a stunning visual and flavor combo that sings summer!
Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips
Make-Ahead: You can prepare the peach filling a day in advance. Just keep it covered in the fridge until you’re ready to bake.
Ingredient Swap: For a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
Perfect Peeling: To make peeling peaches easier, blanch them in boiling water for about 30 seconds; the skins will slip right off!
Storage Suggestions: Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for that freshly baked taste.
