Summer Fruit Cobbler Recipe (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Peach Filling

01 - 5 peaches, cut into wedges
02 - 125 g (1 cup) fresh raspberries
03 - 75 g (½ cup) caster sugar

→ Cobbler Topping

04 - 90 g (½ cup) cold butter, salted or unsalted
05 - 90 g (⅔ cup) caster sugar
06 - 140 g (1 cup) plain flour
07 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
08 - 2 teaspoons milk
09 - 2 tablespoons flaked almonds
10 - Zest of 1 lemon

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 160°C for a fan oven (170°C for a conventional oven).
02 - Cut the peaches into chunky slices and place them in a bowl. Add the raspberries and toss with the caster sugar. Transfer the fruit mixture to an ovenproof baking dish and set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and caster sugar. Using your fingers, rub in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter. Add the milk and mix until the dough comes together with a texture similar to soft cookie dough.
04 - Spoon the cobbler topping over the fruit in the baking dish. Sprinkle with demerara sugar (optional) and the flaked almonds.
05 - Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the fruit is juicy and bubbling around the edges and the cobbler topping is golden and fluffy.

# Notes:

01 - It's not necessary to peel the peaches as they are tender and the skin adds texture. However, if you prefer, you can peel them.
02 - The dough should come together but not be too dry. If needed, add an extra splash of milk to achieve the right consistency.
03 - This cobbler is delicious on its own, but it can be served with ice cream or custard for an extra treat.
04 - The provided nutritional information is for the cobbler only and does not include ice cream or custard.
