Peach Cobbler
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 cups peaches, sliced (about 6 medium)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons shortening
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup nondairy milk (I use soy)
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix 1/2 cup vegan sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon in a 2-quart saucepan. Stir in the peaches and lemon juice.
2. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir for 1 minute. Pour into an ungreased 2-quart casserole; keep hot in the oven.
3. Cut shortening into flour, 1 tablespoon, vegan sugar, the baking powder, and salt until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in milk.
4. Drop dough by 6 spoonfuls onto hot peach mixture. Bake until topping is golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.
For blueberry, omit cinnamon. Substitute 4 cups blueberries for peaches. For cherry, substitute 4 cups pitted red tart cherries for peaches and increase vegan sugar in cherry mixture to 1 1/4 cups, cornstarch to 3 tablespoons, substitute 1/4 teaspoon almond extract for lemon juice. For plum, substitute 4 cups sliced plums (about 14 large) for the peaches, increase vegan sugar in plum mixture to 3/4 cup, cornstarch to 3 tablespoons, and cinnamon to 1/2 teaspoon.'
SO HOW'D IT GO?
I used brown sugar and added black berries also i used whole wheat flour to make the recipe more healthy. Try sprinkling ground walnuts and icing sugar on top it makes it super pretty
I had frozen peaches stashed away bought when it was in season. Since they were extremely ripe and moist, I reduced the sugar to less than 1/4 cup and used a lot more cinnamon and nutmeg. I've never made cobblers before, but this was really delicious when warm. If you have some vanilla soy ice-cream, I think the cooked peaches will go perfectly too.
Mhmm this was perfect, I had a few, about to go bad, nectarines left over, and I threw them in this cobbler, but I used oil instead of shortening, and added a little nutmeg and brown sugar. I also substituted Almond milk for the soy. I am curious after seeing a few people add oatmeal, how does that change the flavor? I am usually pretty daring to try new things, but I really wanted some homey, goodness tonight.
Made this again, but I added 2 handfulls of rolled oats and crumbled some Ghram Cracker on top
Mmmm very good.
I made a half recepie because I only had 2 peaches.
It was the perfect amount for everyone and it was yummy. :D
This was really good, everyone enjoyed it(although I wanted it to myself). WIll have to make another one tonight!
;D This was delicious, as expected. High compliments from my friend who usually *detests* cooked fruit. Yum!! I used the blueberry variation but I kept the cinnamon and doubled the fruit mixture as suggested earlier.. This will be a lovely treat on my lunch break today at work ^_^
Thank you!! I will go ahead and use the cinnamon, I was wondering if the original recipe poster knew something I didnt about how cinnamon and blueberries mixed flavors haha. Thanks :D
Concerning the flavor adjustments for blueberries... I see no reason to not use cinnamon, as cinnamon and blueberries pair nicely. But in case you still do not wish to use it, perhaps some grated lemon peel, and maybe up the sugar to counter the tartness? Lemon and blueberry are also wonderful combinations. Maybe even crystallized ginger. Any of these should be wonderful.
Enjoy!!!
Can anyone recommend a good spice for the blueberry variation to replace the omitted cinnamon? I want this to have a little something special but I cant afford a "trial version" :) Thanks so much!
