Gluten Free Vegan Fruit Cobbler

Juicy peaches, blueberries, blackberries, or cherries bubble away under a golden, craggy biscuit topping in this cobbler, with cornstarch and a splash of lemon juice giving the fruit filling just the right jammy thickness. The biscuit dough comes together quickly with cold butter cubes worked into the dry ingredients until crumbly, then a pour of plant-based milk brings it into a soft, shaggy dough dropped in rustic spoonfuls over the fruit. A light sprinkle of sugar on top bakes into a lightly crisp, sweet crust while the center stays tender and cooked through. Forty-five minutes in the oven is all it takes for the edges to bubble and the topping to turn deep golden brown. Let it rest for those last ten minutes so the filling sets up into something spoonable and warm. It's a cozy, fruit-forward dessert that fits neatly into a gluten free spread, and it's easy enough to make again the next time fruit is in season.

Choose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way.

2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
⅓ cup vegan butter, cold and cut into small cubes
½ cup plant-based milk

For serving

1 tsp organic cane sugar, for sprinkling (optional)
