This is one of my favorite recipes during the summer. It's a great way to use up fresh peaches and smells absolutely incredible when it's baking!
Peach Whirligigs
5 large fresh peaches, peeled, pitted and sliced
2 c water
1 ½ c white sugar
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 1/3 c buttermilk baking mix (like Bisquick)
2 Tbsp white sugar
2 Tbsp butter, melted
1/3 c milk
2 Tbsp butter softened
¼ c white sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 425F.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine peaches, water, 1 ½ c sugar and cornstarch. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Boil for one minute, then reduce heat to low to keep warm.
In a large bowl, stir together baking mix, 2 Tbsp sugar, melted butter and milk to form a soft dough. Remove to floured surface and knead 8-10 times. Roll out into a 9” square.
Spread softened butter over dough. Combine ¼ c sugar with cinnamon, and sprinkle mixture over dough. Roll dough into a log shape and cut into six 1 ½” slices. Pour hot peach mixture into an 8x8” baking dish. Place roll slices, cut side up, on top of peach mixture.
Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes, until puffed and golden. Serve warm.
