Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cans (16 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
- 2 cans (15 oz each) sliced peaches, drained
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Add-Ins
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- A pinch of ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (for brightness)
For Serving (Optional)
- Vanilla ice cream
- Whipped cream
- Caramel sauce
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish generously with butter or nonstick spray.
Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit Dough
Cut each biscuit into four bite-sized pieces.
Place the biscuit pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Step 3: Add the Peaches
Scatter the drained peach slices evenly over the biscuit dough.
Make sure the peaches are well distributed so every bite gets fruit.
Step 4: Make the Cinnamon Butter Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine:
- butter
- sugar
- cinnamon
Stir continuously until the butter is melted and the sugar is mostly dissolved.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract (and lemon juice, if using).
Step 5: Assemble
Pour the warm cinnamon-butter sauce evenly over the biscuits and peaches.
Do not stir — the bubbling happens naturally as it bakes.
Step 6: Bake
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until:
- the top is golden brown
- the biscuits are fully cooked
- the sauce is bubbling around the edges
If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover with foil during the last 10 minutes.
Cooling and Serving
Let the dessert cool for 10–15 minutes before serving.
Spoon into bowls and serve warm.
For the ultimate treat, top with:
- vanilla ice cream
- whipped cream
- a drizzle of caramel sauce
