Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 12–14 minutes
Total Time: 27–29 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

• 16 ounces frozen peaches, thawed, with juice (do not drain)
• 6 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water

Crust:

• ½ cup flour
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1½ tablespoons cold water
• ¼ teaspoon sugar

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Begin by orchestrating the medley of flavors—combine the thawed peaches, their juice, and sugar in the air fryer baking pan. Allow the symphony of sweetness to mingle.
2. In a small cup, dissolve the cornstarch in water, creating a harmonious blend. Gently introduce this mixture to the peaches, enriching their texture and taste.
3. Assemble the symphonic crust by combining flour and salt in a medium bowl. Gradually introduce the butter, allowing it to intertwine with the dry ingredients, creating a melody of flavor. Stir in cold water, transforming this symphony into a malleable dough.
4. On a floured board or wax paper, allow the dough to take center stage. With gentle precision, pat it into a square or circle slightly smaller than your air fryer baking pan. Cut the dough into four pieces, reminiscent of musical notes gracing a sheet.
5. It’s now time for the grand finale. Place the dough pieces atop the peach ensemble, each piece finding its place. Sprinkle the stage with a touch of sugar, a final flourish to enhance the visual and gustatory delight.
6. As the air fryer preheats to 360°F, the performance is about to reach its climax. Cook the cobbler for 12 to 14 minutes, allowing the fruit to bubble with anticipation and the crust to bask in golden radiance.
