Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine 5 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 2 tbsp all-purpose flour. Stir gently until peaches are evenly coated and juices begin to release.
2. Step 2: Pour the peach mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread evenly. Drizzle 4 tbsp melted unsalted butter evenly over the peach filling.
3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Add 1 cup whole milk and stir until just combined to form a batter.
4. Step 4: Spoon the batter by dollops over the peach filling, covering as much surface as possible but leaving some peach filling visible.
5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the biscuit layer comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.
