What is a cobbler
Cobbler is a beautiful dessert that is well known in America and in England too. It's the perfect dessert for fruit lovers, as it's usually made with berries, apples, nectarines, peaches, or other delicious fruits. On top, we will find a golden biscuit or dumpling baked to perfection. The dessert is something between a pie and a crumble. Still, it shouldn't be confused for either, as this one deserves its own category. A crumble is often served with vanilla ice cream, which makes it even more inviting.
What to serve with this peach cobbler
This Peach Cobbler with Whole Wheat Flour can be served as it is. It's best to serve it while it's still warm because the fruit melts in your mouth, and the biscuits' top is super crunchy. We love serving this Peach Cobbler with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. However, it's delicious with a generous dollop of whipped cream too. It adds lightness and creaminess.
Storing
Keep this Peach Cobbler with Whole Wheat Flour covered in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Before serving, reheat or serve cold with a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream.

peaches
Clean the peaches, remove the kernel, and cut them into wedges. Place the peaches in a deep baking dish (approx. 20 cm x 30 cm or 8-inch x 12-inch in size). Add the cornstarch, brown sugar, and vanilla paste. Stir to combine.
-
cut the dough
Lightly dust the working surface and place the dough on top. Roll the dough to 1 cm (1/2-inch) thickness and the size of your baking dish. Cut out circles and put them on top of the peaches in the baking dish. Brush the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.
-
bake
Place the Peach Cobbler with Whole Wheat Flour in the preheated oven. Bake for 45 - 50 minutes at 190 °C / 375 °F (fan-assisted oven). If the cobbler is getting brown too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil for the last 15 minutes of baking. Take the baked Peach Cobbler from the oven and set aside for a few minutes, then divide between six bowls and serve with vanilla ice cream.
