Ingredients
  

For the Peach Filling
  • 6 cups ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced Use fresh, ripe peaches for best flavor.
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Pinch of salt
For the Topping
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed Keep the butter cold for flakiness.
  • 1/2 cup whole milk or buttermilk Buttermilk can be substituted with whole milk.
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for sprinkling on top) Adds extra crunch.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, mix sliced peaches with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently until the peaches are well-coated.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Making the Dough
  1. In another bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  2. Add the cubed cold butter and cut it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Baking
  1. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the peaches, leaving some gaps for steam to escape.
  2. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over the topping for extra crunch.
  3. Place it in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.
  4. Allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
