My husband isn't much of a foodie, but the mention of peach cobbler is one of the rare times I see his eyes actually light up. Summer means peaches are everywhere, and I swear I can't drive past a peach stand without singing that "Peaches" song from the nineties in my head.

When I mentioned it was peach season, he got excited for cobbler — he just didn't need to know I was quietly making a gluten-free, dairy-free (and yes, technically vegan) version for myself, too.

He found out anyway, of course, the moment he saw me eating some right alongside him. I made sure to grab some dairy-free vanilla ice cream to go with it, and mission was fully accomplished.

Ingredients

For the Filling

  • 8 ripe peaches, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. salt

For the Batter

  • 8 tbsp. plant butter, melted
  • 1 1/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 3/4 cup non-dairy milk (oat or almond work well)

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. 2Combine the peaches, sugar, and salt in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
  3. 3Pour the melted butter into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  4. 4Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the non-dairy milk and stir just until combined.
  5. 5Pour the batter into the baking dish and gently stir it into the butter.
  6. 6Spoon the peaches and their juice evenly over the batter.
  7. 7Bake for 35-40 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream and a smile.
