Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
2. Prepare the Fruit Filling: In a large bowl, combine the peaches, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, lemon juice, and cinnamon (if using). Toss until the fruit is well coated, then spread evenly in the baking dish.
3. Make the Cobbler Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla, stirring until just combined.
4. Assemble the Cobbler: Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the fruit filling, spreading it slightly but leaving some gaps to allow steam to escape.
5. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
6. Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!

Use plant-based butter and milk to make it dairy-free.
