Ingredients
- 5 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup cold, cut into small cubes unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (for topping)
- 2 tbsp turbinado sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine 5 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp ground cinnamon. Toss gently to coat and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Step 2: Transfer the peach mixture to a 9-inch baking dish, spreading evenly.
- Step 3: In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Add 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or fingers to blend until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Step 4: Stir in 1/2 cup whole milk and 1 tsp vanilla extract until just combined to form a sticky biscuit dough.
- Step 5: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the peaches. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and 2 tbsp turbinado sugar over the top for a crunchy, cinnamon-sweet crust.
- Step 6: Bake for 35-40 minutes until biscuits are golden brown and peach juices are bubbling around the edges. Let cool 10 minutes before serving warm.
