Ingredients
- 4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 6 tbsp cold, cubed unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup whole milk
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine 4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches, 1 cup fresh blueberries, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tbsp cornstarch, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the fruit evenly.
- Step 2: Transfer the fruit mixture to a 9-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, 3 tbsp granulated sugar, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp salt.
- Step 4: Cut in 6 tbsp cold, cubed unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits.
- Step 5: Pour in 1/2 cup whole milk and stir just until a soft dough forms; do not overmix.
- Step 6: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the fruit filling, covering as much surface as possible.
- Step 7: Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly.
- Step 8: Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
