Cobblers like my healthy blueberry raspberry cobbler are some of my favourite summer desserts. They are easy to make and the fresh fruit makes them so delicious!

Why you will love this recipe:

• This gluten-free peach cobbler has the most amazing flavour! The peaches caramelize when cooking to make them taste so good, and the hints of cinnamon help make it taste even better.
• Even though this homemade cobbler is made from scratch it's really simple and easy to make. 
• This fruit cobbler makes great leftovers and also freezes really well so it's a great option for meal prep.
• Because this healthy peach cobbler is made with almond flour it's higher in protein compared to most cobbler recipes.
• In addition to being paleo this summer dessert is also egg-free, dairy-free, vegan, refined sugar free, and gluten-free too, just like my paleo apple pie bars.

If you love fruit based desserts you will also love paleo lemon and cranberry bars and grain free cherry crisp.

Ingredients and substitutions:

For the full ingredient list and exact measurements refer to the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

• Fresh peaches - the star of this cobbler recipe! If you would rather use frozen peaches I recommend thawing them first and draining off the excess liquid.
• Coconut sugar – my favourite granulated natural sweetener. You could also swap this for brown sugar instead.
• Tapioca flour – to help thicken the peach mixture and give the crust the perfect texture.
• Almond flour - this is used to make the crust on this cobbler. Be sure to use almond flour and not almond meal which is too gritty. You could swap this for cashew flour instead.
• Coconut flour - this is added to the crust to help give it a more firm texture.
• Ground cinnamon - this helps give this fruity cobbler the most amazing flavour!
• Baking soda - to help the crust rise when it bakes. Be sure to use baking soda instead of baking powder.
• Sea salt - to help contrast the sweetness of the fruit and sugar.
• Coconut milk - I recommend using full fat coconut milk rather than low fat coconut milk. You could swap this for another dairy free milk such as cashew milk or almond milk. 
• Coconut oil - this helps give the crust the perfect crumbly texture while keeping it dairy free.

Variations and add ins: 

• If you are not on the paleo diet and tolerate grains, you can substitute corn starch for the tapioca starch.
• For a different appearance, roll out the crust and use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes such as stars or hearts.
• If you want to cover the cobbler completely in crust, roll out the dough and lay it on top. Just be sure to poke some holes in the dough to allow the peaches to seep through when they bake.
• For a slightly different flavour use nectarines instead of peaches to make a paleo nectarine cobbler. 

How to make paleo peach cobbler:

Step one:

First, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Then add the ingredients for the peach layer into an 8″ x 8″ glass baking dish and blend well until everything is combined.

Step two:

Then place the peach mixture in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. While the peaches are baking, make the crust.

Step three:

To make the crust, place all the crust ingredients into a bowl and stir well to combine. After the peach layer has finished baking, form the crust into multiple flat shapes (see photo) and place on top of the cooked peaches, leaving a few spots uncovered to let the peach layer bubble as needed.

Step four:

Now place the dish back into the oven and cook for an additional 25-30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling. Let it cool for a few minutes and then serve and enjoy!

Top tips:

• Do not try using different flours for the crust. I cannot guarantee that any substitutions will work!

How to serve:

This cobbler is delicious served as is, but to make it even more special you could top it with vanilla ice cream, vanilla yogurt or coconut whipped cream.

How to store:

Store any leftover cobbler in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days. 

This cobbler also freezes really well for up to 3 months in a freezer safe airtight container.
