Ingredients
🍑 For the Peach Filling:
• 5 ripe peaches, cut into wedges
• 1 cup (125 g) fresh raspberries
• ½ cup (75 g) caster sugar
🍪 For the Cobbler Topping:
• ½ cup (90 g) cold butter (salted or unsalted)
• ⅔ cup (90 g) caster sugar
• 1 cup (140 g) plain flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp milk
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp flaked almonds (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:
Preheat oven to 160°C fan / 170°C conventional / 325°F.
2️⃣ Prepare the Fruit:
In a bowl, combine peach wedges and raspberries. Sprinkle with caster sugar and gently toss to coat.
Transfer to a greased or parchment-lined baking dish.
3️⃣ Make the Cobbler Topping:
In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, lemon zest, and baking powder.
Add cold cubed butter and rub with fingertips until it forms crumbly, pea-sized chunks.
Stir in milk to create a soft cookie dough texture.
4️⃣ Assemble the Cobbler:
Spoon dollops of the topping evenly over the fruit—don’t worry if some fruit peeks through.
Sprinkle with flaked almonds (and demerara sugar if desired for extra crunch).
5️⃣ Bake:
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges.
6️⃣ Cool Slightly & Serve:
Let cool for 10 minutes before serving warm with ice cream or custard.
Notes
-
Fruit Options: You can use frozen raspberries and peaches—just thaw and drain them well to prevent excess liquid in the cobbler.
-
Peeling Peaches: Peeling is optional. The skins soften during baking and add rustic texture.
-
Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare the fruit filling and topping separately, store in the fridge, and assemble just before baking.
-
Texture Tip: For a crunchier top, sprinkle the biscuit topping with raw sugar or flaked almonds before baking.
-
Serving Suggestion: Best served warm with vanilla ice cream, custard, or whipped cream.
-
Storage: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat uncovered in the oven at 300°F to keep the topping crisp.
