Equipment

  • Peeler: For removing the peach skins easily
  • Mixing Bowls: One for the filling and one for the topping
  • 9×13-Inch Baking Dish: The perfect size for this cobbler recipe
  • Spatula or Spoon: For mixing and spreading the topping
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons: To ensure accurate measurements

Ingredients
  

For the Peach Filling:

  • Peaches: 6 cups of peeled and sliced fresh peaches or 4 cups canned peaches, drained
  • Sugar: ½ cup granulated sugar adjust for sweetness
  • Cornstarch: 2 tablespoons for thickening the filling
  • Cinnamon: 1 teaspoon for warm flavor
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon for depth of flavor
  • Lemon Juice: 1 tablespoon to enhance the peaches’ natural sweetness

For the Gluten-Free Topping:

  • Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour: 1 cup make sure it contains xanthan gum
  • Sugar: ½ cup granulated sugar
  • Baking Powder: 1 teaspoon to help the topping rise
  • Salt: ¼ teaspoon to balance the flavors
  • Milk: ½ cup dairy or plant-based works
  • Butter: ¼ cup melted

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them. Place the peaches in a large mixing bowl and toss with sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.

Assemble the Filling:

  • Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Make the Topping:

  • In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Stir in the milk and melted butter until a smooth batter forms.

Top the Peaches:

  • Spoon the batter over the peach mixture. It doesn’t have to cover every inch—the gaps will allow the juices to bubble through and create a caramelized texture.

Bake:

  • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.

Cool and Serve:

  • Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. It’s delicious on its own or topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Use Ripe Peaches: If using fresh peaches, make sure they’re ripe and fragrant for the best flavor.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Depending on how sweet your peaches are, you may need more or less sugar.
  • Gluten-Free Flour Blend: Ensure your blend includes xanthan gum or guar gum for a cohesive topping.
  • Don’t Overmix: Stir the batter just until combined to keep the topping light and fluffy.
  • Serve Warm: Peach cobbler is best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate dessert.
