Ingredients And Substitutions

Cobbler peach base:

Fresh peaches – Take advantage of peach season and use fresh, ripe peaches! Can’t get your hands on fresh peaches? Drain canned peaches, and you’re good to go.

Maple syrup – Use wholesome sweeteners! Date sugar is another option for this healthy peach cobbler recipe.

Cornstarch – No one wants a runny fruit cobbler! You can use cornstarch or tapioca starch to thicken the juicy peach filling.

Cinnamon – The warm, earthy flavor from this cozy spice complements the sweetness of the peach mixture.

Cobbler batter topping:

Vegan butter – For a rich, crumbly cobbler topping, even without dairy!

Granulated sugar – To sweeten the crispy, buttery cobbler topping.

Pure vanilla extract – Enhances the flavor of the vegan cobbler, so don’t overlook this ingredient.

Unsweetened almond milk – You can use any non-dairy milk.

All-purpose flour – For a more rustic summer dessert and added fiber, combine 3/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup oats!

Baking powder – Helps the cobbler topping rise and become fluffy.

Sea salt – Wakes up the flavors in our perfect peach season dessert.

Vegan vanilla ice cream – The topping for your vegan peach cobbler is up to you, but the pairing of cold, melty ice cream and warm, crispy-gooey peach cobbler is hard to beat!

Other summer fruits like blueberries will be delicious in this peach cobbler. I promise the combo of blueberries and peaches is crave-worthy!

Don’t believe me? Here’s a quick blueberry peach salsa that’ll change your mind.

Tips For Making This Recipe

Make Personal-Sized Cobblers

You can assemble the peaches and cobbler topping in 6 to 8 small baking dishes! The baking time will be a little shorter, so check if the juices are already bubbling and if the topping has turned golden brown to know if your mini vegan peach cobblers are ready.

Serving Suggestions

After you remove the plant-based peach cobbler from the oven, allow it to sit for 15 to 25 minutes to let the juices thicken before serving. Looking for a cobbler topping beyond ice cream? Try slivered almonds, dairy-free white chocolate chips, or vegan caramel!

Storage Tips

Store your leftover peach cobbler in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. I don’t recommend storing it for longer, as it’ll get soggy and less appetizing.
