I saw Adrianna Guevara Adarme, aka, @acozykitchen’s Peach Cobbler Reel the other day and I was like, “have please” — I only had about 1 lb of peaches on hand so I made a mixed stone fruit and berry version and I made, like a few, minor procedural tweaks, also somewhat based on what I had on hand, but it is absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to make it again
FILLING:
2 pounds yellow peaches, or 2 lbs of mixed stone fruit — or in my case 2 lbs of stone fruit and berries
1/4 cup brown sugar — or in my case, 1/4 cup coconut sugar
Juice from 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch kosher salt
TOPPING:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup whole milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS:
First, make the filing: In a large bowl, add the fruit, brown sugar, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla. Toss it all together until combined. Allow it to sit and macerate 6-8 hours at room temp, or 12-24 in the fridge.
Then, when you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, grease or butter a baking casserole dish that’s 9×6 or something comparable. — I used a 10 1/2” stoneware pie dish, thanks, Mom!
Then, make the toping: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon and add the milk, butter and mix until combined.
Add the filling to your prepared baking dish, holding the liquid back — There is no need to go crazy about this, just use a slotted stone, or make an effort to hold the liquid back while you fill the baking dish because macerating and holding the liquid back will brings out the flavor of the fruit and prevents the need for tapioca or cornstarch
Pour the topping on top of the filling. It’s ok if some of the filling is peaking through or it’s not a totally perfect on top.
Transfer to the oven and bake bake for about 50 to 55 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and serve warm with cold vanilla ice cream
