Instructions

In a small bowl, combine the flour, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Mix in cold butter cubes until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until blended.

Transfer to a floured surface and knead 10-12 times. Pat into a 12 inch square and brush with melted butter.

In another bowl, combine the walnuts, cinnamon and remaining brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture over dough to within ½ inch of the edge. Roll up jelly roll style. Seal edges and set aside.

Combine brown sugar, cornstarch and grated lemon peel in a large sauce pan. Gradually stir in water until blended. Add peaches and bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Transfer to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.

Cut biscuit dough into 12 1 inch slices. Arrange cinnamon biscuits over filling. Bake uncovered at 400°F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Macerate Peaches for Maximum Flavor 🍑
Toss sliced peaches with brown sugar and lemon peel 15 minutes before baking to release their natural juices and intensify sweetness, creating a more flavorful filling.
Use Fresh Peaches at Peak Ripeness 🌞
Select peaches that yield slightly to pressure and have a fragrant aroma; underripe fruit won't develop proper sweetness, while overripe ones become mushy during baking.
Chill Your Butter for Better Topping Texture ❄️
Cut cold butter into small cubes and keep it chilled until the last moment before mixing into the cobbler topping to create a flakier, more tender cinnamon roll-style crust.
Thicken Your Filling Properly with Cornstarch 🥄
Mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water first to create a slurry, then stir into warm peach juices to prevent lumps and achieve the perfect sauce consistency.
Don't Skip the Resting Period 🕐
Allow the baked cobbler to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving so the filling sets slightly, making it easier to serve and allowing flavors to fully develop.
