My husband loves to make breakfast with the kids on the weekends. For years it has been their special time. Now that our kids are teens, that time together is less and less. The kids are much more likely to sleep in than get up and make breakfast with dad.
Today, Mr. Fearless Dining is trying to replicate a recipe both he and my son both love. My son is a Boy Scout. When my husband was a scout, he remembers making a peach cobbler on a camping trip. They would layer biscuit with peaches in the Dutch oven and set it on top of the coals.
I don't have a Dutch oven, so I am going to make this gluten free version as close as I can to the original. I hope you love this gluten free peach cobbler recipe as much as my family does.

One of my favorite things about summer is that peaches are in season!! You can find them at your local farmer's markets and grocery stores. Peaches are in season throughout the summer.
You can find both orange and white peaches. I find white peaches taste more honeylike. If you love white peaches, you will love this Peach Cocktail recipe! (You can make it a mocktail too!)
Today, I am teaming up with Smart & Final to bring you a delicious gluten free dessert recipe that the whole family will love :-).
I used a lot of great Smart & Final products for this peach cobbler, from the fresh juicy peaches to almonds, butter, brown sugar, and even almond milk; Smart & Final had me covered for all of my baking needs.
Ingredients:
- Fresh peaches
- Brown sugar
- Butter
- Cornstarch
- Cinnamon
- Gluten free flour blend
- Egg
- Almond milk
- Optional sliced almonds
I have been a huge fan of Smart & Final for a long time...you may remember from my Gluten Free Raspberry Bars post how Smart & Final is a huge part of the communities they are in.
Instructions:
Step 1: Cut up fresh peaches and add brown sugar and butter. (Feel free to add blueberries too if you like!)
Step 2: Mix together the cobbler biscuit topping. If you prefer a paleo, grain-free topping, try this easy Paleo Biscuits recipe!
Step 3: Add the peaches mixture to a greases 8x8 pan. Spread the slivered almonds on top.
Step 4: Drop the gluten free biscuit topping on top of your peach mixture and bake it for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees F. I know summer can be hot so feel free to bake this in a toaster oven, or small convection oven.
Step 5: Serve it warm with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!

Recipe FAQ:
I do not peel peaches before using them in my recipes. The skin is very soft and softens even more while baking.
You can easily use frozen peaches but I recommend thawing your peaches before using them.
I am torn on using canned peaches. Most are full of sweet syrup, which can make your crisp too sweet. If you use canned peaches you may consider buying the least syrupy brand you can find. You can also rinse the peaches in a colander to remove the syrup.
For this cobbler recipe, you will bake it for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees F. I know summer can be hot so feel free to bake this in a toaster oven, or small convection oven.
You can definitely freeze this peach cobbler recipe. You will want to wrap the top of the dish in plastic wrap, then a layer of foil to prevent freezer burn.
To defrost the cobbler, remove the plastic wrap. Replace the foil over the cobbler and bake at 300 degrees for 15-20 minutes until warm.
You can easily make this cobbler nut-free by omitting the almond slices and using different non-dairy milk like rice milk.
This gluten free cobbler recipe is easy to make dairy-free. All you need to do is substitute coconut oil for the butter. You can also use a vegan butter substitute.
Can you make a fruit crisp instead?
You most definitely can make this a peach crisp instead. Use the crumble topping in my Gluten Free Apricot Crisp recipe instead of the biscuit topping.

Hello! This recipe looks so yummy, but I was wondering, would it be fine to use almond flour instead of a GF flour blend?
Sandi Gaertner
Hi Josiah. Almond flour by itself won't work in this recipe. It doesn't absorb moisture the same way as a gluten free flour blend. Did you see my paleo peach cobbler recipe? It is linked in the cobbler recipe you are looking at and it uses almond flour. Enjoy!
