Description
A quick, single-serving peach cobbler that comes together in 40 minutes using just one ramekin. This recipe uses fresh or canned peaches with a buttery, biscuit-like topping for a guilt-free comfort food treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or 2 cups canned peaches, drained)
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel and slice peaches into 1/4-inch wedges. Place them in a 6-8 oz ramekin.
- Toss peaches with sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Gently mash about half the slices with a fork to release juices. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Add melted butter and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Stir with a fork until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Spoon the topping mixture over the peaches, leaving it uneven and rustic. Optionally sprinkle with extra sugar crystals.
- Place the ramekin on a baking sheet to catch drips.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the topping is golden brown and juices are bubbling.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to thicken.
Notes
Do not skip the cornstarch as it thickens the peach juices. Always bake on a rimmed baking sheet to catch bubbling juices. Let the cobbler cool for 5 minutes before eating to prevent burns and allow the sauce to set. For a crispier top, broil for the last 1-2 minutes. Can be made in a microwave-safe mug for 1.5-2 minutes if preferred.
