Vegan Gluten Free Peach Cobbler with Biscuit Topping

Juicy peaches get tossed with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a bright splash of lemon juice, then simmered down under the oven's heat into a thick, glossy filling that bubbles right up through the gaps in the topping. Big spoonfuls of a tender biscuit dough get dropped over the top, baked until golden and crisp at the edges, with a sprinkle of coarse sugar for crunch in every bite. The whole thing bakes into that classic cobbler contrast — soft, syrupy fruit underneath and craggy, buttery-tasting biscuit on top. Let it rest for a few minutes out of the oven so the filling sets up into that perfect spoonable texture before you serve it warm. This one's a great pick for a plant-based dessert table, especially with a scoop of something cold melting into the biscuits. It's the kind of dessert that disappears fast, so don't be shy about the seconds.

¼ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tbsp lemon juice

For the biscuit topping

2 cups gluten free flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
¾ cup cold whole milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened oat milk, measured 1:1. It works well in drinks, batters, sauces, and soups; avoid it where milk sets the texture, like custards, puddings, and frozen desserts.
1 tbsp whole milk, for brushing
