- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, lemon juice, ½ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, cornstarch, and ½ teaspoon salt. Stir to combine and transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Bake for 10 minutes. While peach filling bakes, work on the topping:
- In a clean mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the grated butter and toss to combine.
- Stir in the boiling water quickly, just until combined. Batter will be lumpy.
- Remove baking dish from oven and drop topping over the filling in large spoonfuls.
- Stir together 2 teaspoons cinnamon and ⅓ cup sugar for topping and sprinkle over the top. Bake until top is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 25-30 minutes.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
- Note: This may bubble over -- place on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
