How to Make Fresh Peach Cobbler With Almond Crunch Topping
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- **Make the biscuit topping:** In a food processor, combine 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse to combine.
- Add 1/2 cup cold cubed butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Drizzle in 1/2 cup buttermilk (or heavy cream), pulsing until just combined. Add a little more buttermilk if needed; the dough should be just moist.
- Gather the dough into a ball, place it on a lightly floured surface, and pat it into a disc about 1/2-inch thick. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- **Prepare the peaches:** Slice 6-8 ripe peaches into wedges and toss them with 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Toss with the peaches.
- Pour the peach mixture into a lightly greased 8-inch baking dish.
- On a lightly floured surface, use a floured biscuit cutter or knife to cut out biscuits from the chilled dough. Gently re-roll scraps and cut out more biscuits.
- Arrange the biscuits over the peaches in the baking dish, slightly overlapping.
- Brush the biscuits with 2 tablespoons heavy cream.
- **Make the almond topping:** In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup slivered almonds, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the almond mixture evenly over the biscuits.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling, the biscuits are golden brown, and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or crème anglaise.
