How to Make It

Prepare to indulge in this peachy delight with these simple steps.

1. Mix the Peaches

Load your leftover sliced peaches into a bowl and add honey, vanilla essence, ground ginger, and sugar. Mix well with your hands and spread the mixture between four ramekins.

2. Air Fry the Peaches

Place the ramekins into the air fryer and air fry for 5 minutes at 180°C/360°F.

3. Prepare Cobbler Dough

In another bowl, add flour, caster sugar, and butter. Rub the fat into the flour until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Then add the ground ginger and the egg, using your hands to create a dough.

4. Shape the Dough

When the air fryer beeps, split your dough into four pieces and press each piece down into the shape of your ramekins. Do not press down too much, as you want to maintain a good thickness without covering the edges completely.

5. Bake the Cobbler

Load your cobbler dough over the ramekins, sprinkle with extra sugar, and air fry for a further 12 minutes at 180°C/360°F.

6. Serve Warm

When the air fryer beeps, serve your delicious peach cobbler warm, topped with cream or ice cream.

How to Store It

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freezer: No, the texture may suffer upon thawing.
Reheat: Warm in the air fryer at 160°C/320°F for 5 minutes.
