Ingredients
Filling
- 8 ripe peaches
- 1 pint of blueberries
- ¼ cup of brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon of nutmeg (optional)
- 3 tablespoons of cornstarch
- Juice of ½ lemon
Topping
- 1 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup of brown sugar plus more for garnish
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon plus more for garnish
- 6 tablespoons of unsalted cold vegan butter
- ⅓ cup of hot plant-based milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 425 degrees F. and set aside a 9x13 baking pan.
- Remove the pits from the peaches and slice each peach into 8 wedges. Place the peaches and blueberries into a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and cornstarch. Add the mixture into the bowl with the peaches and blueberries. Mix well until the fruit is fully coated with the mixture. Add the lemon juice and mix.
- Evenly spread the peaches and blueberries into the baking pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- While the fruit is in the oven, make the topping.
- Rinse the bowl that had the peaches and blueberries, dry it well, and combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Dice the cold vegan butter and add it into the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut in the vegan butter until a wet sandy flour texture is achieved.
- Add the hot plant-based milk and mix until fully combined and a soft dough is achieved.
- Once the peaches and blueberries are ready remove them from the oven and add dollops of dough on top.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the dough is nice and golden.
- Allow it to cool and enjoy warm or cold.
Notes
- Don’t skip the cornstarch: This is essential to avoid a watery filling.
- Sweeten to taste: Based on the fruit sweetness and your preference.
- Don’t overmix the batter: Otherwise, it can become dense and rubbery instead of light and fluffy/tender.
- Leave it to rest: Allowing the cobbler to cool slightly out of the oven will help the filling set, making it easier to serve.
