Fruit Filling
- 5 peaches, cut into wedges
- 125 g fresh raspberries
- 75 g caster sugar
Cobbler Topping
- 140 g plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 90 g caster sugar
- 90 g cold butter (salted or unsalted)
- 2 teaspoons milk
- 2 tablespoons flaked almonds
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 160°C if you have a fan oven, or 170°C for a conventional oven to ensure even cooking and a golden crust.
- Prepare the Fruit: Cut the peaches into chunky slices and place them in a large bowl. Add fresh raspberries and 75 grams of caster sugar, gently toss to coat the fruit evenly, then transfer this mixture into an ovenproof baking dish.
- Make the Cobbler Topping: In a separate large bowl, combine the plain flour, baking powder, and 90 grams of caster sugar. Rub in the cold butter using your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces. Add the milk and gently mix until the dough comes together with a soft cookie dough-like texture.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Spoon the cobbler topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish. Sprinkle the top with flaked almonds and zest from one lemon to add a fresh twist and optional demerara sugar for extra crunch.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Bake until the fruit is bubbling and juicy around the edges, and the topping is golden, fluffy, and cooked through.
Notes
- If you prefer, use salted or unsalted butter depending on your taste preference; both work well.
- The milk helps bind the cobbler dough but add slightly less or more if needed for the right dough consistency.
- Demerara sugar sprinkled on top gives a crunchy textured crust but it is optional.
- Ensure not to overmix the dough to keep the topping light and crumbly.
