One of my very favorite fruits is the peach. I just can’t eat enough of them in the summer time. I decided to try a peach cobbler. I found several recipes and came up with my own vegan version. Give it a try – it is easy and oh my, so good!
You may have noticed in my recipe that I use turbinado sugar. Why? Turbinado sugar is raw sugar that has been steam-cleaned. Turbinado sugar is vegan unlike refined white sugar which is usually treated with bone char, an animal product.
VERY EASY PEACH COBBLER
Yield: 5 servings
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup vegan “butter” (I use Earth Balance)
- 1/2 cup unbleached white flour
- 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup turbinado sugar, divided
- 1/2 cup soy, coconut or rice milk
- 2 cups fresh peaches sliced
- 2 teaspoons lemon or lime juice
- ground cinnamon and nutmeg
Directions
- Melt “butter” in a small baking dish.
- Combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder and salt, add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter over butter (DO NO STIR).
- Bring remaining 1/2 cup sugar, peach slices and lemon or lime juice to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly; pour over batter (DO NOT STIR). Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Bake at 375 degree for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with non-dairy ice cream, if you want (I happen to love Tofutti vanilla almond)
- Enjoy
