About this recipe
Imagine enjoying a delightful peach cobbler without any animal products. It’s a beautiful vegan twist on a beloved classic. Juicy peaches, a buttery crust, and all the traditional flavors you love, but with a cruelty-free touch.
You can make a delicious vegan peach cobbler without dairy or eggs. It’s a magical dessert that will leave you amazed! The juicy peaches, a touch of sugar, and a hint of tartness create a burst of flavors that will make your taste buds dance.
Achieving the Perfect Balance of Flavors
The key to a truly exceptional peach cobbler lies in achieving the perfect balance of flavors. To achieve this balance, it’s important to use peaches that are perfectly ripe – not too firm or too soft. The sweetness of the peaches should shine through without overpowering the other flavors.
Ingredients
- Peaches. To choose the best peaches, look for ones that are firm but not hard, with a slight give when gently squeezed. The skin should be smooth and free of bruises, blemishes or wrinkles. A sweet fragrance is a good sign that the peach is ripe and ready to eat. The color of the peach can vary depending on the variety, so don’t be too concerned with color.
- All-pourpose flour, baking powder and salt.
- Granulated sugar, cane sugar.
- Cinammon. Ground cinamoon, you can experiment by adding different warm spices.
- Plant-based milk. I used oat milk for this cobbler, but any milk will work great. Use almond milk, cashwe milk or rice milk.
- Vanilla, vanilla extract or vanilla paste work great here.
- Butter. I used vegan butter. I like Miyokos or Crock Country.
Three Steps for How to Make Peach Cobbler
Making peach cobbler may seem daunting at first, but it’s actually quite simple once you break it down into three easy steps: preparing the peaches, making the filling, and baking.
To prepare your peaches, start by slicing them in half, remove the pit and slice each half. I do not peel my peaches, but you could if you wanted to. This can be done easily by blanching them in boiling water for about 30 seconds and then transferring them into an ice bath. The skins should slide off effortlessly after this process.
Next, place the butter in your baking dish and put itn the oven or microwave to melt it. The next step is to make your filling by combining your sliced peaches with sugar and cinammon. Set aside.
Make the batter by combining the res of the ingredients. Pout the batter over the melted butter and top with the peaches. Place the baking dish on a bakinsheet and bake at 350º for an hour.
Cobbler Vs. Crisp: What’s The Difference?
When it comes to fruit-based desserts, terms like “cobbler” and “crisp” are often used interchangeably. However, there are some subtle differences between these two delicious treats.
A traditional cobbler consists of fruit filling topped with a biscuit-like dough that bakes up fluffy and golden brown. On the other hand, a crisp typically features a fruit filling topped with a crumbly mixture of butter, sugar, flour, and sometimes oats or nuts.
The topping becomes crispy and golden as it bakes, hence the name “crisp.” Both desserts are equally delicious and can be made with a variety of fruits, including peaches. The choice between cobbler and crisp ultimately comes down to personal preference.

Storage Tips
If you have any leftovers (which is unlikely!), you can store your peach cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place it in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through.
If you need to store it for a longer time, wrap your peach cobbler tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze it for up to three months to prevent freezer burn.
