Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 kg / 3 lb (8) yellow peaches, peeled, stone removed, cut into eight wedges
  • 1/4 cup caster / superfine sugar
  • 1 tsp cornflour / cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups plain/all purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup caster / superfine sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 85 g / 6 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup full fat plain yoghurt (or sour cream)
  • 1 tsp demerara sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
  • Ice cream or whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Combine peaches and sugar in a large bowl and allow to macerate for 40 minutes.
  2. During maceration, preheat the oven to 210°C/410°F (200°C fan).
  3. After maceration, drain peaches over a colander to save the juice.
  4. In a separate bowl, measure out 1/4 cup of peach juice, then mix in cornflour, salt, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice.
  5. Pour the peaches into the syrup and toss to coat, adjusting sweetness with more sugar or lemon as desired.
  6. Transfer the peaches and juice into a medium baking pan and parbake for 12 minutes.

Notes

Adjust the sweetness of the peaches according to your taste, as variations in peach ripeness can affect flavor.
Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence.
For an extra twist, add a pinch of nutmeg along with cinnamon for added flavor.
