This is the first and only peach cobbler I have ever had. This yummy recipe is inspired from the Rainbow Plant Life's vegan peach cobbler. Yet another blog that I LOVE! Last year I was looking for recipes to incorporate fruits that were already at home and yet do something different other than a cake/muffin/pie. That is when I came across this recipe. It is always a hit at home!
We LOVE peaches. And this dessert takes your peach love to yet another level! Haha!
I make the vegetarian version of it at home with butter and milk. But you could substitute this with vegan butter and plant based milk for a vegan version.
You would need:
Fruit layer:
5-6 sliced peaches
1/2-1 cup blueberries
(You can also add apricot to this or just do it with peaches without the blueberries. Choose your own version, play with it! I have made all these versions before and they taste equally good.)
1/3 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Cobbler:
Bottom layer:
8 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
Wet ingredients:
1 1/3 cups whole milk (or plant based milk)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract (optional)
Dry Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup cane sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
Method:
Start by preheating the oven to 375°F.
In a bowl mix all the ingredients for fruit layer and let it sit for about half hour. This helps the fruits to soak in all the flavors well.
In another bowl add the wet ingredients for the cobbler. Sieve in the dry ingredients to this. Whisk all these ingredients together, avoiding any lumps.
In a baking pan, add the melted butter. In the original recipe, she likes to brown the butter like ghee and then add it in. You could either follow that, or do a lazy version like mine and just add the melted butter. Or even better, directly add in the ghee! Haha
Now to this butter, add in the cobbler batter. Either you can simply pour it in. Or slowly add the batter with a cup/ladle to make swirls like the originally recipe. It depends on how much patience you have and how fancy you want to be.
Now top up the batter with the fruit layer. You can simply add it in or make fancy patterns like layering the fruits. Make sure to pour in the left over juice from the fruit layer that you mixed and kept aside. You don't want to deprive this cobbler of that yummy fruity peachy
juice!
Bake this at 375°F for 45-50 minutes.
Serve it as it is or with vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy!!!
