Ingredients:
- 6 cups Peaches (fresh or frozen, peeled and sliced)
- 1/4 cup Water or Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Substitute (Monk Fruit/Erythritol Blend)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch or Arrowroot Powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour (or Gluten-Free Blend)
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 cup Powdered Granulated Sugar Substitute (Fine Grind)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (very cold, cubed)
- 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt (full fat, or sour cream)
- 2 tablespoons Milk (Unsweetened Almond or Dairy)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x9 inch square baking dish or a 2-quart oval casserole dish.
- Prepare the Filling: In a saucepan, combine peaches, water/milk, 1/2 cup sugar substitute, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Thicken the Filling: Whisk the cornstarch/arrowroot with 2 tablespoons of cold water/milk to create a slurry. Pour the slurry into the simmering peaches, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens slightly (about 1-2 minutes). Stir in vanilla extract.
- Assemble the Base: Pour the hot peach filling evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Make the Topping Dry Mix: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and the 1/4 cup powdered sugar substitute.
- Cut in the Butter: Using a pastry blender or your fingertips, quickly cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs (pea-sized pieces).
- Form the Dough: Gently stir in the Greek yogurt and 2 tablespoons of milk until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be shaggy.
- Drop the Topping: Drop large spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the hot peach filling, leaving space between the mounds.
- Glaze (Optional): Brush the tops of the dough mounds lightly with extra milk.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is deeply golden brown and the filling is bubbling furiously around the edges.
- Cool & Serve: Let the cobbler cool on a rack for at least 15–20 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set properly.
