Try this dish with any frozen fruit: blueberries, raspberries, or a mix!
Here’s a quick and easy dessert that’s perfect for any night of the week, and it cooks in just 2 minutes. We had it for the first time tonight as a celebration of the first snow-day of the year! My husband is a teacher, so we definitely root for the snow. Today we had the best of both worlds: there was no school in preparation for the snow, and then it didn’t actually snow so there were no traffic nightmares. All we had to do today was snuggle up with our 1 year old and this hot peach cobbler.
This dessert is sweet because it contains peaches, but if you like you can add a touch of your favorite plant-based sweetener. I’d do so if I was going to serve the cobbler to non-vegan guests or if I was just beginning to ease into a 100% plant-based diet.
Ingredients:
I usually grab a few bags of frozen fruit on a grocery trip for smoothies. Frozen is just as good as fresh since the fruit was picked at peak ripeness and immediately frozen!
10 oz Package organic frozen sliced peaches (such as Cascadian Farm Organic), thawed
1 & 1/2 Cups quick oats
1/4 Cup 100% whole wheat flour
1/4 Teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 Teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 Cup plant-based milk (soy, almond, etc.)
1 Tablespoon plant-based sweetener such as brown sugar or maple syrup (optional)
Combine the quick oats, flour, nutmeg and cinnamon and mix with a fork. Add the sweetener if using and slowly stir in the plant-based milk. Add enough plant-based milk so that oat mixture is uniformly moist but not soggy. Put the peaches at the bottom of a microwave safe container and spoon the oat mixture on top in dollops (no need to carefully layer or spread it). Cover the container and microwave for 2 minutes or so until hot. Spoon cobbler into a clear jar or mug for a lovely presentation, and enjoy!
Mmm, peachy!
