Instructions
Filling
Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 13x9 glass or ceramic baking dish with coconut oil or vegan butter.
In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches, cane sugar, and cornstarch together. Transfer them to the prepared baking dish and set aside.
Topping
In another mixing bowl, whisk the flour, cane sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Melt the vegan butter in a small bowl in the microwave or a double-boiler, then whisk in the vanilla. Pour the butter mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring to incorporate. It should resemble cookie dough at this point.
Using your hands, evenly crumble the batter on top of the peaches. Bake the cobbler for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the juices are bubbling.
Remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 20-25 minutes before serving. Enjoy as-is or with vegan vanilla ice cream. Happy eating!
Notes
Consistency: If your peaches are extra juicy and you prefer a thicker consistency, add an extra teaspoon or two of cornstarch to the peaches.
Let the peaches ripen: If you’re buying fresh peaches, pick them up a few days before making your cobbler so they have time to properly ripen.
Evenly spread: Spread the peaches out evenly on the bottom, and don’t be afraid to overlap a few pieces. More fruit is better than less when it comes to a cobbler!
Let it cool: Let the peach cobbler cool on the counter for about 15-20 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to thicken into a jammy consistency.
Keep an eye on it: Cobbler can burn quickly, so make sure to keep an eye on it in the oven. Take it out when it’s golden brown and bubbly.
