Ingredients
Filling:
- * 8 peaches – peeled pitted and sliced into wedges
- * 1/4 cup white sugar
- * 1/4 cup brown sugar
- * 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- * 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- * 2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- * 3 teaspoons cornstarch
Dough:

Instructions
Directions:
- Heat oven to 425F or 218C.
- In a large bowl, combine peaches, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss to coat evenly, and pour into a 2-quart baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend in butter with your fingertips, or a pastry blender, until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Stir in water until just combined.
