Ingredients
Scale
For the peach filling:
- 6–8 peaches, cored and sliced into 1/2 inch slices
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 tablespoon flour
For the biscuits:
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter, cold and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon melted butter for topping
- Raw sugar for topping
Instructions
For the peach filling:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a large pie dish or 9×13 baking pan, combine the peaches with the sugar, brown sugar, almond extract and flour until the peaches are completely coated. Set aside.
For the biscuits:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add in the butter and work together with your fingers or a pastry cutter until the cold butter is combined with the flour mixture and resembles course gravel. Pour in the milk and use a rubber spatula to combine until a dough starts to come together.
- Roll the biscuit dough out on a lightly floured surface to a 1/2 inch thick rectangle. Fold the rectangle in half and then in half again. Roll back out to a 1/2 inch thick rectangle. Cut the biscuits out into 2 and 3 inch round biscuits. Roll the leftover dough back out to cut more biscuits and repeat until all the dough has been used.
- Place the biscuits on top of the prepared peach filling. Gently brush the tops of all the biscuits with the melted butter and sprinkle with a little bit of raw sugar.
- Bake for about 1 hour, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the peaches are bubbly and caramelized. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
Notes
- The amount of peaches used depends on the size of your peaches and the size of the baking dish you are using. Use enough to fill your baking dish.
- You can peel your peaches or leave the skin on – either way will be delicious!
- If you don’t have raw sugar for topping your biscuits, you can use a little bit of regular sugar.
