Gluten free peach cobbler that captures the essence of summer with every bite! It’s the most scrumptious crust with my flour blend. Just pick some fresh, ripe peaches from a tree and keep this recipe on repeat for the short peach season.
The natural sweetness of tree ripe peaches combines with the gooey filling and the perfect gluten free crust. In our garden we are lucky that we have a peach tree for the freshest of fruit. Otherwise, if you do not have a tree, check out your local markets and stalls for fresh peaches.
The recipe begins with succulent peaches cooked in a pan, in their own juices. Add an extra flavour boost from a splash of vodka and some sugar. The vodka is definitely optional!
The first step in mixing the batter, is to beat the eggs. To the eggs, add the psyllium husk and most of the butter
Add the remaining butter to the dish … which is about 2 tablespoons. Add the batter on top of the butter. Finally, place the cooked peaches, plus all the juice in the bottom of the pan. All the juices that seep through create the most delicious filling!
Swirl the batter from the bottom to little to let some of the peaches peek through the top. This creates little pockets where the juice from the peaches can do some evaporating.
As the cobbler bakes in the oven, the flavours meld together beautifully! The peaches release their natural juices, creating golden brown and bubbling masterpiece.
When serving, up a plate of peach cobbler, be sure to add a dollop of ice cream, a splash of cream or enjoy it on its own!
