🍑 Why You’ll Love It:

  • No oven needed—perfect for small kitchens or hot days

  • Ready in under 30 minutes

  • Uses fresh, canned, or frozen peaches

  • Crispy golden top, juicy peach filling underneath

📋 Ingredients:

For the peach filling:

  • 2 cups sliced peaches (fresh, frozen, or canned & drained)

  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

  • ½ tsp cinnamon

  • 1 tsp lemon juice

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 tsp cornstarch (helps thicken, optional)

For the cobbler topping:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 tbsp cold butter, cut into small pieces

  • ¼ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

Optional: Cinnamon sugar for topping

🥣 Equipment:

  • Air fryer-safe baking dish (around 6-inch round, or similar)

  • Cooking spray

🔪 Instructions:

1. Preheat & Prep

  • Preheat air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3–5 minutes.

  • Spray your baking dish with nonstick spray.

2. Make the Filling

  • In a bowl, combine peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, vanilla, and cornstarch.

  • Pour into the prepared baking dish.

3. Make the Topping

  • In another bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  • Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  • Stir in the milk until just combined (don’t overmix).

  • Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches. It doesn’t have to cover them fully—cobbler has a rustic look!

4. Air Fry

  • Place the baking dish in your air fryer basket.

  • Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 18–22 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and cooked through.

🔥 Tip: If it starts browning too fast, loosely cover with foil halfway through.

5. Cool Slightly & Serve

  • Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to thicken.

  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

🍨 Serving Ideas:

  • Top with vanilla bean ice cream

  • Drizzle with caramel sauce

  • Add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar before baking for extra crunch

❓Air Fryer Peach Cobbler Q&A

🔸 Q: Can I use canned peaches?

A: Yes! Just drain them well and reduce sugar in the filling slightly, as canned peaches are often already sweetened.

🔸 Q: Can I use frozen peaches?

A: Absolutely. Thaw and drain excess liquid, or add an extra ½ tsp of cornstarch to help thicken the juices.

🔸 Q: Do I need to peel fresh peaches?

A: It’s optional. Peeling gives a smoother texture, but leaving the skins on is quicker and still delicious.

🔸 Q: What kind of dish should I use in the air fryer?

A: Use an oven-safe dish that fits in your air fryer basket—ceramic, glass, metal, or silicone. About 6 inches round works best.

🔸 Q: Can I double the recipe?

A: Yes, but only if you have a larger air fryer or bake in batches. A larger batch needs more time—add 3–5 minutes and check doneness.

🔸 Q: How do I know when it’s done?

A: The topping should be golden and firm, and the peach filling should be bubbling at the edges. A toothpick inserted in the topping should come out clean.

🔸 Q: How long will leftovers last?

A: Store covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 325°F for 5–7 minutes for best results.

🔸 Q: Can I make this vegan or dairy-free?

A: Yes!

  • Use a plant-based milk (like almond, soy, or oat)

  • Swap in vegan butter or coconut oil

🔸 Q: Can I use other fruits?

A: Definitely! Try mixed berries, nectarines, apples (pre-cooked a bit), or mango.
