Ingredients
Scale
Peach Filling
- 6 cups fresh ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (natural)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (natural)
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Plant-Based Crust
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold plant-based butter
- 1/2 cup plant-based milk
Instructions
- Prepare the Peach Filling: Peel and slice fresh peaches into uniform pieces. Toss gently with sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and apple cider vinegar (natural) to brighten the flavors. Sprinkle in the natural gelling agent to thicken the mixture as it cooks, creating a luscious syrupy fruit base.
- Create the Plant-Based Crust: In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold plant-based butter using fingertips or a pastry cutter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in plant-based milk until the dough forms a slightly sticky ball, suitable for layering over the peach filling.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the peach filling into a greased baking dish. Evenly spread the crumbly crust mixture on top, allowing some peach slices to peek through. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, around 40 to 45 minutes.
- Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes to allow the filling to thicken fully. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally garnished with cinnamon, fresh peach slices, plant-based whipped cream, or plant-based vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Use perfectly ripe peaches for the best flavor and juiciness.
- Do not overmix the crust dough to keep it crumbly and flakey.
- Adjust sugar and spices to your taste before baking.
- Watch the baking time closely; oven temperatures may vary.
- For crisp crust texture on leftovers, reheat in the oven instead of the microwave.
