How to make vegan peach cobbler from scratch (in 2 steps!)
This peach cobbler recipe is incredibly easy to make, which is why I consider it the best peach cobbler recipe. Who wants to spend a beautiful summer day peeling peaches, when you can just easily make a delicious healthy cobbler in two steps?
The full written instructions and ingredient measurements are found down below in the recipe card. However, we’re going to go over the basics here, along with providing some visual steps.
To start, you’ll make the peach filling. This is a simple filling of just peaches, maple syrup, and vanilla. I toss everything in the casserole dish as well. Saves a bowl and some cleaning! Set this aside, and we’ll make the oat flour biscuits.
For the cobbler part, you don’t have to make this a vegan gluten free peach cobbler. There is an option for using all-purpose flour, which I’ve noted in the tips section below (right before the recipe card). So be sure to go check that out! But the biscuit part itself is so easy.
Simply cut the cold vegan butter into the flour and sugar mixture. Add in the vegan buttermilk and stir to combine. Then gently form the dough into a thick rectangle. Slice the dough into squares (I did square biscuits, but you can do round biscuits as well!).
Now assemble the peach cobbler. Place the biscuits on top of the sliced peaches, and bake!
How to serve peach cobbler
This peach cobbler is wonderful to serve with a scoop of store bought or homemade vanilla ice cream! You could even serve this cobbler with fresh coconut whipped cream.
Of course, this easy peach cobbler is also delicious just as is!
Fruit cobbler recipe tips & tricks:
- Make sure to use fresh peaches. Sometimes, people mention that they end up with a gummy peach cobbler filling. The only way to avoid that is by using fresh peaches that are in season. Using canned peaches or a canned peach filling will yield a really gluey texture that just won’t taste good! Keep in mind that peaches are in season from the beginning of May until late July!
- If you don’t need a gluten free cobbler: you can easily make the biscuit part of this recipe with all-purpose flour! The biscuits used in the vegan strawberry shortcake can be made with all-purpose flour, but for this recipe, simply use 2 cups (250 grams) of all-purpose flour.
- There’s no need to peel the peaches! Some people say that you must peel the skin off of the peaches before using in a cobbler. However, I’m super lazy when it comes to a really simple recipe, and have found that it’s totally fine to make this peach cobbler with the peel still on the peaches. Save yourself some time, and skip the blanching process!
- If you don’t have vegan butter: you can swap in coconut oil for an equal amount in the biscuit recipe. Make sure to use triple refined coconut oil if you don’t want the coconut taste!
- Use vanilla powder for a super vanilla taste. Part of the reason why I love this peach cobbler so much is that the vanilla powder is so potent with beautiful vanilla flavor. Plus, you get these lovely specs of vanilla bean seeds! I highly recommend using vanilla powder if you really want a beautifully flavored peach cobbler. However, you can also use vanilla extract if you’d like something easier!
You are just going to absolutely love this healthy vegan peach cobbler recipe! It’s just so easy, and perfect for all eaters, even the vegan skeptics.
This vegan peach cobbler recipe is amazing for:
- Memorial Day & Fourth of July
- Summer Barbecues
- Summer dinner parties
- Beach dinners
- Father’s Day
- Mother’s Day
- Birthday parties
- And more!

Description
This super easy healthy vegan peach cobbler is the fruit dessert recipe to make this summer! With a super sweet juicy peach filling and easy homemade vegan biscuits, this is the best peach cobbler recipe for all eaters!
Ingredients
Peach Cobbler Filling:
- 5 medium peaches, sliced (about 4 cups)
- 1/4 cup (85 grams) maple syrup
- 1/4 tsp vanilla powder or 1 tsp vanilla extract
Vegan Gluten Free Biscuits:
- 2.5 cups (300 grams) homemade oat flour
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) salted vegan butter, cubed + chilled
- 1/2 cup (115 grams) dairy-free milk, such as oat milk or coconut milk
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F and lightly grease a large casserole dish. Set aside.
- Prepare the vegan buttermilk by combining the dairy-free milk and apple cider vinegar. Mix together in a small bowl and set aside, to be used in the biscuits.
- Prepare the peach cobbler filling: make sure the peaches are sliced, then place them into the casserole dish. Drizzle the maple syrup over the peaches, along with the vanilla powder or the vanilla extract. Toss the peach slices in the maple syrup in the dish and set aside.
- Make the biscuit dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add in the cubed vegan butter, and use a pastry cutter or a fork to cut the butter into the flour mixture until you achieve a sand-like texture. Then add in the vegan buttermilk (dairy free milk and apple cider vinegar mixture), and use a rubber spatula to fold the vegan buttermilk into the flour mixture until you achieve a thick dough. Be careful not to over mix the dough. You’ll mix it until the buttermilk has just mixed into the flour.
- Shape the biscuits: lightly flour a clean surface and shape the dough into rectangle that’s about 2″ thick. Use a bench scraper or large kitchen knife to cut the dough into four squares, and stack the squares on top of each other. Lightly flour a clean rolling pin, and lightly roll the dough stack back down to a 2″ thick rectangle. Carefully reshape the edges of the dough, and roll the rectangle down to be about 1″ thick. Slice the biscuits into square or round biscuits.
- Bake the healthy peach cobbler: place the biscuits on top of the peach filling, and place the casserole dish into the oven to bake for 45 minutes. After 30 minutes, if you see the biscuits lightly browning, you can cover with tin foil to bake for the remaining time. Remove the cobbler from the oven, and allow the cobbler to cool for 15 minutes.
- Serve the peach cobbler: serve the cobbler with scoops of vegan vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
- Storage: store any leftovers in an airtight container and in the fridge for up to 5 days.
