How to Make Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler

Ingredients:

  • 5 peaches (cut into wedges)
  • 125 g fresh raspberries
  • 75 g caster sugar
  • 90 g cold butter (salted or unsalted)
  • 90 g caster sugar
  • 140 g plain flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons milk (see notes)
  • 2 tablespoons flaked almonds
  • Zest of 1 lemon

Directions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). This ensures the cobbler bakes evenly.

  2. Prepare the Fruit:
    In a mixing bowl, combine the peach wedges and fresh raspberries. Sprinkle them with 75 g of caster sugar, then gently toss the fruits together. Let them sit while you prepare the cobbler topping.

  3. Make the Cobbler Topping:
    In another bowl, mix 90 g of caster sugar, plain flour, and baking powder. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk, lemon zest, and flaked almonds until just combined.

  4. Assemble the Cobbler:
    Spread the peach and raspberry mixture evenly in a baking dish. Spoon the cobbler topping over the fruit, ensuring it covers most of the fruit but allows some peeks of fruit to show.

  5. Bake:
    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.

How to Serve Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler

Serve the cobbler warm, straight from the oven. It’s delightful on its own or you can top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.

How to Store Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler

To store leftovers, let the cobbler cool completely, then cover it with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container. It can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, place it in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes.

Tips to Make Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler
