Ingredients
Scale
- 6–7 fresh ripe peaches (about 2 lbs), peeled and sliced
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free), cold and cut in cubes
- 2/3 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9-inch baking dish or equivalent.
- Peel and slice the peaches. In a large bowl, toss peaches with 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Let sit 10–15 minutes to release juices, then spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- In another bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add cold butter cubes to dry mixture. Cut in with pastry cutter or fingertips until mixture is crumbly.
- Add milk and stir until just combined (do not overmix). Let batter rest 5–10 minutes for flours to hydrate.
- Spoon batter evenly over peaches, spreading gently but leaving some gaps for steam.
- Bake 40–45 minutes until topping is golden and peaches are bubbling. If browning too quickly, tent with foil halfway.
- Let cool at least 20 minutes before serving to set the juices. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Tip: You can use canned (drained) or thawed frozen peaches if fresh aren’t available. For dairy-free, use coconut oil and non-dairy milk. Letting the cobbler cool before serving helps the topping firm up and the peach syrup thicken. Store leftovers covered in fridge up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months.
