Ingredients

Scale

Peach Filling

  • 4 cups fresh ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (natural)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent (dissolved in 2 tablespoons water)

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for variation)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (natural)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup plant-based butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peach Filling: Peel and slice the peaches into even pieces. In a large bowl, gently toss them with granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and the natural gelling agent dissolved in water. Set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
  2. Make the Cobbler Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, natural baking powder, and salt. Add the softened plant-based butter and rub it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar until a thick, spoonable batter forms.
  3. Assemble and Bake: Butter a baking dish and pour the peach filling evenly into it. Spoon dollops of the cobbler batter over the peaches, covering most but leaving some fruit visible for a rustic look. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  4. Cool and Enjoy: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly to allow the filling to thicken further. Serve warm or at room temperature for a comforting dessert.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm peaches to ensure tender chunks after baking.
  • Do not overmix the batter; stir just until combined for a light, fluffy topping.
  • Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your peaches.
  • If the topping browns too quickly, tent with foil halfway through baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
