  • Prep Time : 15m
  • Cook Time : 35m
  • Ready In : 50m

Ingredients

  • about 1.35kg peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 3 tbsp caster sugar
  • 2 tbsp peach brandy
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • FOR THE TOPPING
  • 115g plain flour
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ salt
  • 45g finely ground almonds
  • 55g caster sugar
  • 55g butter or margarine
  • 85ml milk
  • ¼ tsp almond essence

Method

Step 1

Preheat a 220°C oven.

Step 2

In a bowl, toss the peaches with the sugar, peach brandy, lemon juice and cornflour.

Step 3

Spoon the peach mixture into a 3½ pt (2 litre) baking dish.

Step 4

For the topping, sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Stir in the ground almonds and all put 1 tablespoon of the sugar. With 2 knives, or a pastry blender, cut in the butter or margarine until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Step 5

Add the milk and almond essence and stir until the topping mixture is just combined.
