Vegan Peach Cobbler
Perfectly tender cobbler made with fresh summer peaches and topped with a cinnamon-sugar crunch. Best served warm and topped off with your favorite ice cream on those warm summer nights.
Peaches have to be my favorite thing about the summer months. They have the perfect amount of sweetness to add to any recipe. You can use peaches in so many different ways, simply grilling peaches, baking them in pies, and best of all, cobblers.
There are so many different ways to make a peach cobbler. So which way is the right way?! Well, it can all matter on personal preference. I prefer plenty of cinnamon and a tender yet crunchy biscuit on top of the sweet peach filling. But I also wanted it to be egg and dairy-free. While it took some practice getting the vegan biscuit to turn out just right, I've finally found the perfect texture and taste that your friends and family won't even know it's vegan!
HOW TO MAKE VEGAN PEACH COBBLER
For a peach cobbler, you will need to make the filling and then the biscuit topping.
For the filling, you'll need:
⦁ peaches (pitted and sliced)
⦁ sugar
⦁ cinnamon
⦁ nutmeg
⦁ vanilla extract
⦁ vegan butter
You will cut up the vegan butter into cubes in a 9x13 baking dish and place it in the preheating oven to melt. Then add the sliced peaches, cinnamon, sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla extract to the baking dish and mix it up so that the peaches are completely covered. Add this back into the oven for 5 minutes.
For the biscuit topping, you'll need:
⦁ vegan butter
⦁ granulated sugar
⦁ brown sugar
⦁ vanilla extract
⦁ dairy-free milk
⦁ all-purpose flour
⦁ baking powder
⦁ salt
For the dough, you will cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Then add the dairy-free milk and vanilla extract. Slowly add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just combined. It will be a very sticky dough, but that's ok! You'll add the biscuit dough, by the spoonful, on top of the peach filling. While this is optional, I like to sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar over the dough to give it that slight crunch. Bake in the oven and enjoy it fresh and warm with some ice cream!
