Peach And Streusel Shortcake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, sour cream and 2 tablespoons butter until soft dough forms.
• In ungreased 9-inch square pan, press dough, using fingers coated with Bisquick mix. In small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon butter and the pecans. Sprinkle mixture over dough.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cut warm shortcake into 6 wedges. Split each wedge. Fill and top with sliced peaches. Top with whipped cream and additional chopped pecans.

Steps:

• Adjust a rack to the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease the bottom and sides of a rimmed 10-by-15-inch baking sheet with butter.
• For the dough: Combine the butter, flour, confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor and process until the mixture comes together in a solid mass (this may take a few minutes). Drop pieces of the dough all over the prepared baking sheet. Use your fingers to press the dough evenly along the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan, filling any gaps. Set aside.
• For the filling: Toss together the peaches, brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl until the cornstarch dissolves. Transfer the filling onto the crust and spread in an even layer. Bake for 30 minutes.
• For the streusel: While the pie bakes, make the strussel topping by combining the flour, almonds, brown sugar, melted butter and salt in a small bowl until evenly moistened.
• Remove the pie from the oven and sprinkle the streusel evenly over the filling. Return the pie to the oven and bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes more. (If the crust browns too quickly during baking, cover the pie loosely with foil.)
• Let the pie cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• For the topping: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, oats, almonds, brown sugar, cinnamon, and sea salt. Pulse until mixed. Add the butter. Pulse until the butter is the size of peas. Sprinkle the mixture over the filling and bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the top is light golden. Cool the crumble for 5 minutes.
• Spoon the warm crumble into bowls and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
