Easy Strawberry Peach Cobbler with a Golden Topping
This strawberry peach cobbler has a juicy fruit filling and a soft, golden topping with less butter and sugar than many traditional cobblers, letting the fresh summer fruit take center stage.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 3 cups sliced peaches
- 3 cups sliced strawberries
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
Topping
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tbsp butter melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add sliced fruit into a 9x13” baking dish and lightly grease with butter, oil or cooking spray. Add peaches, strawberries, lemon juice and brown sugar to the dish and combine gently.
- In a medium bowl mix brown sugar, milk, melted butter and vanilla. Mix until combined.
- Add whole wheat pastry flour to the bowl and then sprinkle baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Combine all ingredients together until a smooth batter forms.
- Spoon or pour batter evenly over fruit.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes until topping is golden brown and fruit is soft and bubbling.
Notes
- Ripe fruit makes all the difference. Choose peaches that give slightly when gently squeezed and fragrant strawberries for the best flavor.
- If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain them. This prevents excess liquid.
- Let the cobbler rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This gives the fruit filling time to thicken as it cools.
- Whole wheat pastry flour creates the softest topping. All-purpose flour also works.
- This cobbler is best served warm. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or Greek yogurt.
