Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 1 lb)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (5.3 oz)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (2.3 tbsp)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed (4 oz)
  • 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar (2.3 oz)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk (6 fl oz) (or milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice as substitute)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine sliced peaches and blueberries. Sprinkle with granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and drizzle lemon juice over the top. Gently toss with a spatula until the fruit is evenly coated. Set aside for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar.
  4. Add the cold cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter or two forks, cut butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits of butter remaining.
  5. Pour vanilla extract and buttermilk into the flour-butter mixture. Stir gently with a spatula just until combined; do not overmix.
  6. Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
  7. Dollop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the fruit, spreading gently to cover most of the surface but leaving some gaps.
  8. Bake for 40–45 minutes until the biscuit top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly. If the biscuit browns too quickly, loosely cover with foil after 30 minutes.
  9. Let the buckle cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Keep butter cold for flaky biscuit topping. Avoid overmixing biscuit dough to prevent toughness. Use slightly underripe peaches to maintain texture. Tent with foil if biscuit browns too fast. Let cool before serving to thicken filling. Optional: add chopped nuts on top before baking or serve with vanilla ice cream.
