What’s the difference between a peach pie and peach cobbler?

This question comes up a lot when discussing cobblers.

Simply put, a peach cobbler is more of a freeform desert with a fruit base and more of a biscuit-like topping.

Whereas, a peach pie, is more put together with a pie crust base and a pie crust topping. A pie requires more prep time, as you have to knead the pie dough for both the bottom of the pie – and the top.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a great pie! But if you’re looking for something sweet, delicious and simple, a peach ‘cobbler’ is the way to go.

What makes this peach cobbler vegan?

Simply put, there’s no added dairy products such as eggs and dairy milk. You can also make this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. 
The oil and the nut milk work together to combine the flour and make the perfectly appetizing and flavorful dough topping. 

What you’ll need:

As I stated above, this peach cobbler doesn’t require much thought beforehand and can be made mostly with ingredients you already have. You’ll need the following:
  • Fresh peaches
  • Sugar, I use raw sugar
  • All-purpose flour
  • Cinnamon
  • Baking powder
  • Salt, I use pink Himalayan salt
  • Canola oil
  • Nut milk of choice, I use almond milk
  • Vegan butter, I use Earth Balance 
I also added a crumble topping, per my family’s request and it came out amazing! 

Can I use canned peaches?

Yes, you can use canned or frozen peaches if you’d like. Just make sure your canned peaches are drained from all of its juices. 
You can use equal parts canned and/or thawed peaches, to equal parts fresh peaches. One pound of frozen or canned peaches is about three medium peaches. 

Now, you’re ready to get started. With less than two handfuls of ingredients and no prep time for the dough – you’ll be enjoying this deliciously sweet summer treat within no time. The crumble topping is optional, but was highly requested!

6 freshly peeled and sliced peaches
1 1/3 cup + 2 tablespoons flour, divided 
1/3 cup + 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
