How to Make Quick and Easy Breakfast Peach Cobbler

Healthy cobbler is one of my favorite dessert recipes to make, so why not make a version that you can also have for breakfast?! My thoughts exactly. You’ll need to prepare for 40 minutes of baking time, but the prep shouldn’t take more than 10 or 15! In total, this dish will take less than 1 hour from start to finish.

Start by preheating the oven to 350F.

First, you’ll prep the streusel topping to have ready to go. In a medium bowl and using either a fork or pastry cutter if you have one, work together the butter and sugars until just combined.

In the same bowl, add the flour, oats and salt. Whisk together completely and if you are using walnuts or any other nut of choice, go ahead and incorporate those now. Place the bowl in the fridge while you make the filling next.

Then, in a large bowl, mix the egg, monk fruit sweetener, and maple syrup. Add the gluten-free oatmeal, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, salt and chia seeds, if you’re using them.

Carefully add the dairy free milk into the same bowl and combine all of the ingredients together. Gently fold in the sliced peaches.

Pour the bowl of ingredients into the prepared baking dish.

Next, you’ll be adding the streusel topping you’ve already prepped. Using your fingers, break up the mixture and distribute evenly over the filling that’s already in the fish.

Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown.

Let cool for 15 minutes, and then enjoy!

Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Peach Cobbler Substitution Options

Do you have a few alternative ingredients on hand that you’re looking to use in this recipe? Here are some easy swaps that may work for your cobbler.

Peaches: Love a good cobbler but aren’t a big fan of peaches? That’s ok! They can be swapped with blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, or even blackberries. Choose the fruit of your choice, and follow the directions as outlined in the recipe card.
Maple Syrup: is used in both portions of this recipe. If you’d prefer something else, you can use honey or molasses!
Monk Fruit Sweetener: fdh another ingredient that’s used in both portions of the recipe. If you don’t have this zero calorie, natural sweetener on hand then feel free to use whichever sugar/sweetener you do have available. Just keep in mind that you may need a bit more sweetener than the recipe calls for as monk fruit is typically sweeter than alternatives.
Walnuts: I love using walnuts in this cobbler, but you can use any type of nut that you’d like. I’m positive pecans in particular would taste excellent!
Plant-based butter: This ingredient can be replaced with any similar fatty oil. Coconut oil, ghee, avocado oil, or even regular butter will work just fine.

Healthier Cobbler Recipe Variations

When I make any new recipe, health and nutritional value is at the forefront of my mind. I love playing around with ingredients to make dishes that are as supportive for your body and mind as possible! For this recipe, I used four ingredients that make it a bit more nutritious than a classic cobbler recipe.

Maple Syrup: To sweeten my cobbler, I used maple syrup. This is one of my go-to ingredients because it serves as an all-natural sweetener that tastes wonderful and eliminates the need for granulated sugar. Combined with the peaches, the taste is something else!

Monk Fruit Sweetener: Another sugar alternative that is wayyyy healthier than granulated sugar. I use this ingredient in nearly everything I make and cannot recommend it enough! Particularly if you’re wanting to keep mindful of your blood sugar then this option is the way to go.

Rolled Oats: Your typical cobbler recipe will almost always fall in the dessert category, most likely using some kind of sugary dough as the top layer. While I’m all for sugary dough and desserts that make my mouth water, I really wanted to enjoy the flavors of this dish while also giving my body what it needs to have a healthy and productive day. I love the feeling of being confident with my food choices, so I combined oats with this recipe to make it equally delicious and nutritious to enjoy for both breakfast or dessert!

Chia seeds: Now this ingredient is entirely optional, but I just can’t help myself when it comes to sneaking in just a wee bit more nutritional value when and where I can! Chia seeds are powerful little guys that are high in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, minerals and fiber to help aid digestion, support strong bones, promote heart health and improve blood sugar levels.

Tools Needed to Make this Peach Cobbler Recipe

When I say this recipe is simple, I mean it! In total, you’ll only need four items to bring this cobbler to life: 2 mixing bowls, a stirring utensil, and a 9×9 ceramic baking dish. If you have a different sized pan or don’t have one that’s ceramic, feel free to use it, but keep a close eye during baking as times my vary.

Tips on how to make Easy Breakfast Peach Cobbler

Here are a couple of quick how-tos that will help you create the best cobbler for breakfast you’ve ever had!

Don’t skip any of the ingredients: It may be tempting to omit the monk fruit or maple syrup, for example, but these ingredients are vital! You’ll want to use all of the ingredients listed to end up with a delicious cobbler.
Use fresh or frozen fruit: You might be want to use canned fruit in this recipe if it’s something you already have on hand, but I might advise against it. Canned fruits are often loaded with added sugars and flavorings that can not only ruin the flavor of this cobbler, but also diminish the nutritional value. Try and stick with fresh or frozen fruits if you can!
Cool thoroughly before eating: I know we all loveee a warm cobbler, but definitely wait until the cobbler has cooled before digging in! As the cobbler cools down, the filling ingredients will thicken a bit, making it that gooey cobbler texture we all know and love. If you really can’t wait to dive in, that’s fine too, just keep in mind that it might be a bit runnier than it should be!
Storing peach cobbler: Refrigerate any leftover cobbler in a sealed container and try and enjoy within 4 days. Feel free to eat it cold or reheat in the microwave in 15 second increments.
Making peach cobbler ahead of time: Can peach cobbler be made ahead of time? You betcha! I actually really love prepping this recipe on a Sunday evening to have fresh and ready to go for breakfasts moving through the week, so yes absolutely!

Storage

Store in airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-5 days. Be sure to warm up again prior to enjoying!
