2 pounds organic peaches, large, ripe, cut into 1 inch pieces
10 ounces Dried Tart Cherries (optional)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup heavy cream
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl mix together orange juice and ground cinnamon.
Combine remaining ingredients for filling.
Transfer to an ovenproof dish and bake for 30 minutes.
While filling is baking, prepare topping. Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Add the butter; blend with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Pour in buttermilk and heavy cream. Combine thoroughly but do not over mix.
Place the dough in small spoonfuls evenly over the filling.
Continue to bake until topping is golden brown about 20 to 30 minutes.
Serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream.
