A delightful vegan peach cobbler with a crispy topping and juicy peach filling.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even baking from the start.
In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar and cornstarch.
Mix thoroughly to avoid lumps in the filling.
Add water and sliced peaches to the saucepan.
Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly.
Cook the mixture over medium heat until it thickens, stirring constantly.
Keep stirring to prevent sticking or burning.
Pour the peach mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Spread the filling evenly for consistent baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Whisk the dry ingredients to ensure even distribution.
Cut in the vegan butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use a fork or pastry cutter for best results.
Stir in the plant-based milk until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the topping light.
Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the peach mixture.
The topping will spread as it bakes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the topping; it should come out clean.
Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with vegan ice cream for a delightful treat.
