Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups peeled, sliced fresh peaches (or 2 cans, 15 oz each, sliced peaches in juice, drained)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust based on peach sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Bisquick baking mix
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup milk (whole, 2%, or dairy-free alternative like almond milk)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced peaches, 3/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until the peaches are evenly coated. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading evenly including some thickened juices.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix and 1/3 cup sugar. Add the milk and melted butter, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.
  5. Drop about 12 spoonfuls of the biscuit batter evenly over the peach filling, spacing slightly apart.
  6. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling bubbles around the edges. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid watery filling. Cornstarch is essential to thicken the peach juices. Do not overmix biscuit batter to keep topping tender. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil. For a gluten-free version, substitute Bisquick with gluten-free baking mix. For dairy-free, use plant-based milk and butter alternatives. Brushing biscuit topping with melted butter before baking adds a nice sheen and browning.
