Ingredients

2 Tbsp cornstarch
1+1/2 Cups plus 1 Tbsp Sugar
5 Cups cherries, stemmed and pitted
2 lbs peaches - peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/2" thick wedges
3 Cups all-purpose flour
3 Tbsp baking powder
3 tsp salt
1+1/2 stick unsalted butter (about 6 oz), melted
3 Cups Buttermilk
1 tsp cinnamon

Cooking Instructions

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat 425 degrees. Butter a 13x9x2 inch glass or ceramic baking dish.
Whisk together cornstarch, cinnamon, sugar, and peaches in a large bowl and toss to combine. Add the more delicate cherries last and give a gentle stir.
Transfer fruit mixture into the baking dish and bake for ten to fifteen minutes until bubbling.

While fruit bakes, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Add buttermilk and melted butter (allow it to cool slightly before adding.) Mix just until a dough forms.

Drop batter onto fruit and sprinkle with remaining tablespoon of sugar. Bake until top is golden brown, about 20 - 25 minutes.
