Ingredients:
- 4 cups (600g) fresh or frozen peaches, sliced
- 2 cups (300g) fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
- 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp (10g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup (180ml) whole milk
Instructions:
- Combine the sliced peaches, blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a bowl. Toss gently so you don't smash the berries.
- Pour the fruit mixture into the bottom of your 6 quart slow cooker. Spread it into an even layer until the fruit is flat.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the melted butter and whole milk. Mix just until a thick, smooth batter forms. Don't overmix, or the topping will get tough.
- Carefully dollop the batter over the fruit layer. Use a spoon to spread it, but do not stir the batter into the fruit.
- Cover the slow cooker with a tight fitting lid. Cook on Low for 3 to 4 hours (or High for 2 hours).
- Remove the lid once the topping has set and the fruit is bubbling until it smells like warm cinnamon and sugar.
- For a truly golden top, you can pop the whole slow cooker ceramic insert under your oven broiler for 2-3 minutes at the very end, ensuring the insert is oven safe.
