4 cups peaches (I used canned peaches, drained approx. 2 (29 oz) cans, but sliced and peeled fresh peaches would certainly work)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional, or you can reduce to 1/8 tsp if you'd rather the cinnamon be more prominent)
1 and 1/2 Tbsp arrowroot powder or cornstarch
1/2 cup Original Earth Balance buttery spread, melted (I can't vouch for flavor if you use any other type of vegan spread, even if you are using the soy-free or whipped Earth Balance)
1 and 1/3 cups GF Flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)
2 and 1/4 tsp. baking powder (Trader Joe's aluminum free baking powder is ridiculously cheap BTW)
1 tsp. salt
1 and 1/2 cups original almond milk
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Put your drained/sliced peaches into a bowl and sprinkle your cinnamon, nutmeg and arrowroot powder/cornstarch. Toss them around a bit with a spoon to coat them more evenly. In a separate bowl, mix your GF flour, baking powder and salt together. Add in the melted butter and almond milk and beat until smooth. Pour this batter into a 9x11 glass baking pan and then drop your peaches on top. If you'd like, you can sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top as well. Stick it in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes... well, bake it until it is "done" according to your standards........
I baked it longer and longer, in hopes of reducing the goo factor, but gave up when the edges began to brown. Being frugal and not wanting to waste the whole pan, {but really mad to have used another cup of not so cheap GF flour only to be wasted}, I used a fork to pull the peach slices out and figured at least they could be thrown into the kids oatmeal in the morning for some flavor. It was only then, staring at the messy pan in front of me, that I tasted some of the "cooked" breading along the edges and top and realized it tasted really good!!!
It dawned on me..... I sat down at the computer and googled "Is cobbler supposed to be gooey?" *sigh* Yep. It is. Can I blame this on never having had cobbler growing up? What can I say, I am a "crisp" kind of person. I make a MEAN apple crisp.
