Ingredients
Strawberry Peach Filling
  • 6 medium yellow peaches (7 cups, chopped)
  • 1 pound strawberries (3 cups, sliced)
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cinnamon Biscuit Topping
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ cup cold butter, cubed
  • ½ cup cold buttermilk
Eggwash
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk
For serving
  • Vanilla Ice Cream
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking pan with olive oil. Set aside for now.
  2. For the filling, chop peaches and strawberries. Mix together brown sugar, cornstarch, and ground cinnamon until well combined. Add the mixture to the fruits and mix until combined. Pour the filling into the baking pan and bake the strawberries and peaches for about 15 minutes. This will help soften the fruits. Remove the strawberries and peaches from the oven and set aside for now.
  3. For the biscuit topping, whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt together in a large bowl. Add the butter and break the butter into the flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until it appears crumb like. Drizzle buttermilk into the batter and mix until combined.
  4. Take the dough and flatten it. Then spread it on top of the strawberry peach filling. The dough doesn’t have to cover all of the filling.
  5. Mix together egg and milk to create an eggwash. Use a pastry brush to brush the eggwash over the dough. This will help the top of the biscuits brown. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top of the dough.
  6. Bake the strawberry peach cobbler for 40-45 minutes until the top is slightly browned and the dough is baked through. Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes.
  7. Serve the strawberry peach à la mode -- with a scoop of ice cream on top.
