Ingredients
Fruit Filling
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Cobbler Batter
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
Instructions
- Prepare the peaches: In a mixing bowl, combine the peeled and sliced peaches with 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly, then set aside to allow the sugar to draw out the juices.
- Make the batter: In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and milk, stirring until just combined to form a smooth batter.
- Assemble the cobbler: Pour the sweetened peach mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Spoon or pour the batter gently over the peaches, making sure to cover most of the fruit.
- Bake the cobbler: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and cooked through, and the peach filling is bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
