Description
A Southern dessert of juicy caramelized peaches covered in buttery biscuit layers, sweetened with cinnamon and brown sugar. Flaky, custardy, and perfect for warm seasons.
Ingredients
8-10 cups yellow peaches (fresh or frozen)
2 cups brown sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cold butter (2 sticks)
1/2 cup milk
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
Instructions
Peel (or use frozen), halve, and pit peaches
Toss peaches with brown sugar, cinnamon, and 2 tbsp flour
Transfer to a buttered 9×13-inch baking dish
Whisk remaining flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl
Cut in cold butter until crumbly with pea-sized lumps
Gradually add milk, mixing until just combined
Spoon dough over peach filling and press gently
Bake at 375°F (190°C) until golden for 35-40 minutes
Notes
Yellow peaches caramelize better than white varieties
Don’t overmix dough after wet ingredients are added
Let sit 5 minutes before serving for better texture
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for 3 days
