Ingredients

For fruit

1 1/4 pounds firm but ripe peaches (about 5), peeled, pitted, cut into 1-inch-thick wedges
12 ounces strawberries (about 3 cups), hulled
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch

For topping

1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Vanilla ice cream

Preparation

  1. Make fruit:

    Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F.

    Step 2

    Butter 8-inch square baking dish. Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Let stand until sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer to prepared dish.

  2. Make topping:

    Step 3

    Mix flour, baking powder and salt in small bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in large bowl until smooth. Beat in egg yolk, lemon peel and vanilla.
