Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Boil the sweet potatoes in water for about 10-12 minutes, or until soft. Drain and mash until smooth. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and salt. Toss to coat the peaches evenly.
Spread the mashed sweet potatoes evenly in the bottom of a greased 9×9-inch baking dish. Layer the peach mixture on top of the sweet potatoes.
To make the biscuit topping, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the dough comes together. Spoon the biscuit dough over the peaches, spreading it evenly to cover the top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

If using canned peaches, drain them well before using.

To make this recipe vegan, substitute the butter with vegan butter and use a plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.

If you have sweet potato puree on hand, you can swap it for boiled sweet potatoes.

For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend in the biscuit topping.

The cobbler is done when the biscuit topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
