Instant Pot Peach Cobbler
Description
The Instant Pot Peach Cobbler recipe uses fresh sliced peaches sweetened and thickened with sugar and flour. These are cooked directly in the Instant Pot with a little water to soften and release their juices. The cobbler topping combines flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, butter, and milk to form a loose dough reminiscent of biscuit dough. Dolloped over the warm peaches, this dough gently cooks under pressure to create a soft yet structured crust. The spices add mild warmth, complementing the natural sweetness of the peaches.
Once the cooking cycle ends with a natural release, the cobbler is ready to serve. Its tender cooked peaches and lightly spiced topping make it suitable for dessert or a comforting snack. It can be enjoyed plain or with accompaniments like cream or ice cream, though the recipe does not indicate any topping.
Using an Instant Pot allows the flavors to meld quickly and the topping to cook through with moist heat, ensuring a juicy filling and a soft crust. The topping is carefully prepared to have a crumbly texture before cooking, which helps it set during the pressure cooking stage. The natural release after cooking helps avoid sudden texture changes that might deflate the crust.
Ingredients
Peaches
- 4 cups peach pitted and sliced, fresh
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ cup water
Topping
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup butter unsalted
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Add peaches, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of flour. Stir to combine until peaches are coated. Set aside.
- Turn Instant Pot to Saute setting, add water, and bring to a boil. Add peach mixture to boiling water. Stir and let cook while you prepared the topping.
- In another mixing bowl stir together 2 cups of flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
- Cut butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or a fork until small crumbs form. (It should have a sand-like texture that'll stick together when you pinch it.) Pour in milk and stir until a loose dough forms.
- Spoon the cobbler topping over the peaches in dollops. It will spread as the cobbler cooks, but try to evenly cover the peaches as best you can.
- Lock the Instant Pot lid in place and set the vent to sealing. Turn the pot to high pressure (Manual setting) and set the timer for 20 minutes.
- Once the cooking time is done, allow the pot to naturally release for 10 minutes before quick releasing any remaining pressure.
- Portion cobbler into bowls and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, if you like.
