Gluten-Free Vegan Peach Cobbler

This Gluten-Free Vegan Peach Cobbler is the best comforting dessert: think sticky, jammy peaches under a soft, "buttery" topping! You can use fresh peaches in summer and tinned peaches the rest of the year. It's super easy to make, comes together in one bowl, is refined sugar free, and perfect for sharing and entertaining!

How to make this recipe

Scroll down to the bottom of the post for the full recipe.

• Place the peaches in a large baking dish (I used one measuring 26 cm (10 inch) by 18 cm (7 inch) and 7 cm (2 ½ inch) tall).
• Add the maple syrup and lemon juice and mix well.

• Place all the ingredients for the topping in a glass mixing bowl and mix well.

Tip: Add the plant-based milk a little bit at a time until you get a fairly soft dough.

• Use two tablespoons to place a heaped tablespoon of the dough on top of the peaches.
• Repeat for the rest of the mixture - you should be able to make around 12 balls.

• Sprinkle over coconut sugar, if desired.

• Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until browned and an inserted skewer into the topping comes out clean.

Notes

*Make sure the peaches are ripe as that will make the stones easier to remove. However, they should still be firm. The peaches can be replaced with nectarines. 

If you want, you can add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon to the peaches.

**If you don’t want to use vinegar, replace it with 2 tablespoons lemon juice as you need something acidic to react with the alkali bicarbonate of soda (baking soda).

***You can alternatively use almond flour.
