◷ 55 minYield: 8 servingsEasy

Ingredients

  • 800 g sliced peaches
  • 60 g sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 140 g arequipe
  • 180 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 60 g butter
  • 120 ml milk

Method

  1. Heat oven to 190°C / 375°F. Toss peaches with sugar, cornstarch and vanilla; transfer to a baking dish and dot with arequipe.
  2. Mix flour and baking powder, cut in butter and add milk to make a soft dough.
  3. Drop mounds of dough over the fruit.
  4. Bake 32–38 minutes until golden and bubbling. Rest 15 minutes before serving.
Arequipe noteIf your peaches are very ripe, reduce the sugar slightly; the arequipe brings plenty of sweetness.
