Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 to 6 medium ripe peaches, peeled and sliced (about 4 cups)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100 g)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup oat flour (120 g), certified gluten-free
  • 1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed (85 g)
  • 1/3 cup milk (80 ml), any kind (almond or oat milk for dairy-free)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pinch of ground ginger or cardamom
  • Optional: 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • Optional: 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel, pit, and slice peaches into 1/2-inch thick slices (about 4 cups). Place in a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Add sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg to peaches. Stir gently to coat evenly. Let macerate for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together oat flour, gluten-free baking powder, and salt.
  4. Cut cold, cubed butter into the oat flour mixture using a pastry cutter or forks until crumbly with pea-sized pieces. Chill mixture in fridge for 10 minutes if butter softens.
  5. Stir milk and vanilla extract into the oat flour mixture until just combined. Add more milk by teaspoon if too dry.
  6. Transfer peach mixture evenly into a 9×9-inch baking dish.
  7. Spoon oat flour topping over peaches in dollops and gently spread to cover most of the fruit.
  8. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until topping is golden brown and peach juices bubble. Cover loosely with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  9. Cool cobbler for at least 10 minutes before serving to thicken juices and set topping.

Notes

Use certified gluten-free oat flour to avoid cross-contamination. For dairy-free, substitute butter and milk with plant-based alternatives. If topping is too soft, chill before baking. Frozen peaches can be used but reduce sugar slightly. Watch baking time closely to avoid over-browning.
