White peaches!!!
Ingredients:
4 large peaches (about 1 QT) (I used white)
2 cups fresh, chopped pineapple
1/8 cup cornstarch
1/8 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup flour
1/8 cup + 1 TBL white sugar
1/2 TBL baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 TBL cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg
1/3 cup cold, heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Blanch peaches so they are easier to peel. Just dip them in boiling water for a couple of minutes and cool to touch. Peel away the skin and slice. Combine sliced peaches, cornstarch, brown sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Toss until well combined. Pour into a 2 QT baking dish, or a 10 inch cast iron skillet.
In another medium bowl, combine flour, 1/8 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter with 2 forks, a pastry blender, or just use your fingers like I do! Whisk egg, cream and vanilla in a small bowl, or a measuring cup. Add cream mixture to flour and stir with a fork until just combined. Drop by spoonfuls over the peaches. Sprinkle with 1 TBL white sugar.
Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool slightly and serve with vanilla ice cream and/or whipped cream. (If you have heavy whipping cream left over, whip it with a handful of sugar to make fresh whipped cream!) YUM!!
Makes 6-8 servings, depending on serving size!
