Equipment

  • Medium to large baking dish (glass or ceramic recommended)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Cooling rack

Ingredients
  

For the Filling:

  • 4-5 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1-2 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1-2 tbsp cornstarch or all-purpose flour (for thickening)

For the Biscuit Topping:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • ½ to ¾ cup milk or cream

Optional Add-ins:

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for filling or topping)
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • ¼ cup chopped almonds or pecans (for topping)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the filling by tossing sliced peaches and raspberries with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Set aside to macerate for at least 15 minutes.
  • Pour the fruit mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading evenly.
  • Make the biscuit topping: in a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk or cream until just combined.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the fruit, leaving some gaps.
  • Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, until topping is golden and fruit is bubbly. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil.
  • Let cool slightly before serving. Optionally, serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Peeling peaches is optional but recommended for a smoother filling.
  • Frozen fruit can be used—thaw and drain excess liquid before use.
  • Adjust sugar based on fruit sweetness.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute flour with a gluten-free blend.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days; reheat gently before serving.
