Gluten-Free Peach Cobbler Recipe

I have to thank my grandmother for this delicious southern peach cobbler recipe! Growing up, each year I looked forward to the summer because it meant that peaches were in season, which ultimately meant my grandmother would be making her famous peach cobbler! When she brought it to our family cookouts and gatherings, it was the first dessert gone! Even our neighbors would line up at the door just for a slice of my grandmother’s peach cobbler!

My grandmother poured her heart into everything she baked. I felt absolutely honored when she finally shared her secrets to making the best peach cobbler. Now, I am excited to share them with you! 

This Peach Cobbler is Gluten-Free and Vegan!

I’ve taken my grandmother’s peach cobbler recipe and altered it a bit to make it more of my own. The fluffy, cakey crust is made using Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free 1:1 Baking Flour and to keep this cobbler dairy-free I use Vegan Earth Balance Original Buttery Spread. This gluten-free peach cobbler is slightly healthier than typical cobbler recipes but is still warm, succulent, and sweet with the perfect cakey cinnamon sugar crust!

What You Need To Make This Delicious Peach Cobbler

Peach Cobbler Filling:

• Fresh Peaches (frozen or canned work as well)
• Water
• Brown Sugar
• Cornstarch
• Lemon Juice
• Butter (I use Vegan Earth Balance Original Buttery Spread)
• Cinnamon
• Vanilla Extract

Buttery, Cake Topping:

• Flour (I use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 All Purpose Baking Flour)
• Brown Sugar
• Baking Powder
• Salt
• Unsweetened Almond Milk
• Butter (I use Vegan Earth Balance Original Buttery Spread)
• Vanilla Extract

Topping for Crust:

• Coconut Sugar
• Nutmeg
• Cinnamon

How To Easily Make Peach Cobbler From Scratch

1. Combine the peaches, cornstarch, water, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil. Then stir in lemon, vanilla extract, and butter.
3. Transfer the mixture into a baking dish.
4. Combine the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
5. Slowly mix in the butter mixture until just combined
6. The batter should be thick , yet clump free
7. Using a spoon, drop the batter onto the top of the peach mixture. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar topping
8. Bake until golden and the fruit is bubbling

Here are a few substitution options

Gluten-Free Flours 

This recipe is completely gluten-free. I like to use Bob’s Red Mills 1:1 Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour. Any gluten-free flour with xantham gum already in the ingredients, like King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour, should work.

If you do nit have any gluten sensitivities, feel free to use regular flour, like this one.

Dairy-Free Peach Cobbler

You can use dairy-free alternative milk like coconut milk or almond milk (my preference). You can also replace the non-dairy milk with regular milk.

Cornstarch Substitute

If you do not or cannot have cornstarch, you can use tapioca or arrowroot starch to make the peach cobbler filling.

Brown Sugar Substitute

You can substitute the brown sugar for white sugar (completely your preference). If you would like to make this cobbler refined sugar free, you can replace the brown sugar with coconut sugar. 

Vegan Butter Substitute

I use Vegan Earth Balance: Original Buttery Spread. You can always use regular butter instead of vegan butter in this recipe. 

What peaches to use for cobbler

Fresh, canned, or frozen peaches work perfectly fine when making this gluten-free peach cobbler. If using frozen peaches, make sure the peaches are completely thawed before using. 

How To Serve And Store This Gluten Free Peach Cobbler

• Peach cobbler is best served warm and the day it is made. Enjoy with your favorite {dairy-free} vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. 
• You can store the peach cobbler covered on the counter if you plan on finishing the cobbler within 24 hours. 
• If you would like it to last longer, you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. 

How To Reheat Peach Cobbler

If you would like to reheat your cobbler, you can place it on an oven-safe dish and reheat at 300°F for about 10-15 minutes — which is my preferred method. You can also warm it in the microwave for about 15-30 seconds.
