A quick and simple gluten-free peach cobbler made in a skillet, perfect for summer gatherings with a tender, buttery topping and juicy peaches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 45 medium fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (8g)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (15ml)
  • 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour (120g)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (48g)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (4g)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (2g)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (1.5g)
  • 1/2 cup milk (120ml), dairy or almond milk
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (57g), melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5ml)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss the peeled and sliced peaches with sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir gently until evenly coated. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the peach mixture into a 10-inch cast iron skillet, spreading evenly.
  6. Dollop the batter over the peaches in spoonfuls and lightly spread it out, leaving some peaches visible.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly and thick.
  8. Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to avoid a gummy texture. Use ripe but firm peaches for best results. Let peaches macerate for 10 minutes to draw out juices. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly. For dairy-free, substitute butter with coconut oil and milk with plant-based milk. Almond flour is optional but adds moistness and texture.
