The Southern summer dessert — juicy spiced peaches baked under spoonfuls of soft, buttery biscuit dough that rise into a golden, cobbled crust. A short head start in the oven gets the fruit bubbling, so the topping cooks through underneath.

Steps

1
Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan).
2
Toss the peaches with the 100 g sugar, cornflour, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg and spread them in a 23 × 33 cm baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes, until the juices start to bubble.
3
Meanwhile, mix the flour, 50 g sugar, baking powder and salt and rub in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
4
Stir in the buttermilk with a fork just until a soft, sticky dough forms; a few dry patches are fine.
5
Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the hot peaches, leaving gaps for the juices to bubble through, and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
6
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the topping is golden and cooked through underneath and the fruit bubbles thickly.
7
Rest for 15 minutes and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
