When I have fresh peaches and it’s approaching the end of summer, all I want to make is a cobbler. While I do love my Vegan Blueberry Cobbler, there’s nothing better than the sweet and sour mix that peaches give. My vegan peach cobbler is a vegan dessert made of two layers. The bottom layer is baked peaches cooked in sugar and cornstarch to form a sticky jam-like texture. The top layer is made of a crispy, fluffy vanilla cinnamon biscuit. While the classic cobbler recipe is not vegan since the toppings contain butter and milk, you can easily make a vegan cobbler at home very easily by following my recipe below.
Ingredients and Substitutions
All you need to make a vegan peach cobbler recipe are a few basic ingredients. I provide substitutions and options for food allergies below, but if you have a gluten intolerance, jump to my vegan, gluten-free peach cobbler recipe. As mentioned before, a cobbler is a two-layer dessert made of a juicy baked fruit base and then topped with a dollop of biscuit batter. To make the base, you need:
Peaches – feel free to use fresh peach slices or canned peach slices. Below I provide tips for both options. Corn starch – or arrowroot flour or tapioca flour. Any starchy flour works very well here. Cinnamon Nutmeg – skip if you don’t like the flavor of nutmeg. I personally love it with peaches! Lemon Juice Sugar – I am using unrefined cane sugar or erythritol in my cobbler recipe. Both options are healthier than white sugar, but any crystal sugar works in the recipe, so feel free to pick your favorite.
For the crispy vegan cobbler biscuit, you need:
Flour – all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour works well here. Other options are spelt flour or white whole wheat flour. If you prefer to use almond flour, follow my almond flour cobbler recipe. Sugar – as mentioned above, for a sugar-free option, use erythritol, or for a healthier vegan cobbler, use unrefined cane sugar or coconut sugar. Don’t use liquid sweeteners like maple syrup, or the biscuit won’t be crispy. Baking powder Cinnamon Melted vegan butter – or coconut oil. Vanilla extract Unsweetened almond milk or non-dairy milk of choice like soy milk, oat milk, or coconut milk.
