Ingredients

Scale

Peach Filling

4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced into thick wedges
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (natural)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
1 teaspoon natural gelling agent (optional)

Topping

1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free baking blend for gluten-free option)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons cold plant-based butter
1/2 cup plant-based milk

Instructions

Prepare the Peach Filling: Peel and slice fresh peaches into thick wedges. In a mixing bowl, combine peaches with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and natural gelling agent if using. Gently toss to coat the peaches evenly, then set aside to let flavors meld.
Make the Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Incorporate cold plant-based butter by cutting it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Slowly stir in plant-based milk until a soft dough forms, creating the topping that will bake to a golden, crisp finish.
Assemble and Bake: Pour the peach filling into a greased baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of the topping dough evenly over the peaches, leaving some fruit visible. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 40 to 45 minutes, until the topping is golden and crisp and the peach filling bubbles around the edges.
Cool and Serve: Allow the Peach Cobbler to cool for at least 10 minutes after baking to let the filling set slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor.
Do not overmix the topping dough to ensure a tender, crumbly crust.
Use natural gelling agent sparingly to keep the filling thick and luscious without runniness.
Let the cobbler rest before serving to enhance flavor absorption and texture.
Adjust sugar amounts depending on the natural sweetness of your peaches.
