1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

   In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon until evenly coated.

3. 3

   Transfer the peach mixture to the baking dish and bake for 10 minutes to start the juices flowing while you prepare the biscuits.

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and baking powder.

5. 5

   Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.

   Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the hot peach filling and sprinkle the tops with coarse turbinado sugar.

8. 8

   Bake for 30-35 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
