Instructions to Make Gluten Free Peach Cobbler
Step One
In a medium size pot combine the peeled and diced peach pieces along with 3/4 Cup of sugar.
Step Two
Over a medium heat cook the peach and sugar mixture. Stir often until the sugar dissolves, the juice is thick, and the fruit is soft but not mushy. Approx. 10 minutes. Start on next steps while cooking. Remove from heat when ready.
Step Three
In a medium size mixing bowl measure out the remaining 1/4 Cup of sugar, 1 Cup of GF flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of GF baking powder. Have oven preheating to 180 C (350 F).
Step Four
Mix all dry ingredients together well.
Step Five
Add 3/4 Cup of whole milk to the dry ingredients.
Step Six
Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until dough is smooth.
Step Seven
Cube the butter into medium size chunks and place in the 20 x 20 cm (8 x 8 in.) oven proof baking dish. Place in the center of the preheated oven until the butter is melted – approx. 3 – 5 minutes, then remove from oven.
Step Eight
Once the butter has melted spread the dough batter over the melted butter in the baking dish.
Step Nine
Spoon the peaches and juice over the batter. Optional – sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Place in the center of the hot oven and bake until a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean – approx. 35 minutes.
Step Ten
Serve hot with cream, ice-cream or yoghurt.
