Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium fresh peaches
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup skim milk
- 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Wash and peel the peaches. Slice them into thin wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, and cinnamon to the peaches. Toss to coat evenly, then transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and the remaining granulated sugar.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the skim milk, applesauce, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches, spreading it slightly to cover most of the fruit. It's okay if some fruit is still exposed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the topping turns golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a dollop of low-fat yogurt or a scoop of light vanilla ice cream, if desired.
