Ingredients

  • 6 cups Fresh peaches, sliced
  • 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
  • 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 0.5 cup Whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your outdoor grill for indirect cooking at 375°F (190°C). If using charcoal, push coals to the sides; if gas, turn off the middle burners.

  2. 2

    In a 12-inch cast iron skillet, toss the sliced peaches with the lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar.

  3. 3

    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, the remaining granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  4. 4

    Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

  5. 5

    Stir in the milk until a thick, shaggy dough forms, being careful not to overmix.

  6. 6

    Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the peach mixture in the skillet, leaving small gaps for steam to escape.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon over the top of the dough and peach filling.

  8. 8

    Place the skillet on the indirect heat zone of the grill, close the lid, and bake for 40-45 minutes until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown and smoky.
