Ingredients
Peach Filling
- 8 Peaches (fresh, peeled, pitted, sliced)
- ¼ cup White Sugar
- ¼ cup Brown Sugar
- ¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1 tsp Lemon juice (fresh)
- 2 tsp Cornstarch

- 3 tbsp White Sugar

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
- Toss well to coat, then transfer to a 2-quart baking dish.
- Bake for 10 minutes to soften the peaches.
- In another bowl, mix flour, white sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the butter using your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
- Stir in boiling water until just combined.
- Remove peaches from the oven.
- Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the peaches (it won’t cover completely—this is normal).
- Mix cinnamon and sugar, then sprinkle over the top.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
