Ingredients:

Peach Filling:

• 3 peaches, sliced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Biscuit Topping:

• 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons cold vegan butter, cubed
• 2 tablespoons vegan buttermilk (see note for making vegan buttermilk)

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small baking dish suitable for two servings.
2. In a medium bowl, prepare the peach filling by combining the sliced peaches, lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly.
3. Transfer the peach mixture to the greased baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
4. In another bowl, prepare the biscuit topping. Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add the cold, cubed vegan butter and use a fork, pastry cutter, or your hands to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Gradually add the vegan buttermilk, a little at a time, mixing until a rough dough forms. You may not need to use the full 2 tablespoons.
6. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the peach filling, spreading it out evenly or arranging it as desired.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the biscuit topping comes out clean.
8. Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving.

Note: To make vegan buttermilk, add a small dash of vinegar or lemon juice to 2 tablespoons of plant milk and let it sit for a few minutes until it curdles.

Enjoy!
