List of Ingredients

Sauce:
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large peaches, peeled, chopped
1 cup water

Dumplings
1 1/2 cups flour
4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large peaches, peeled, chopped
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Topping:
1 cup chilled whipping cream
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla


Recipe



Heat oven to 375º. To prepare sauce, mix sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, allspice and salt in saucepan; stir in peaches. Heat to boil, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thickened, about 10 minutes.

For dumplings, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Stir in peaches and pecans. Combine buttermilk and oil; stir into flour mixture just until ingredients are moistened.

Pour sauce into 13x9" baking dish. Drop dumpling dough into sauce using large serving spoon, making sure you leave a space between each. Bake until dumplings are cooked through and sauce is bubbly, about 30 minutes.

For topping, beat cream in bowl of electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add sugar and vanilla and beat on high speed until soft peaks form. Serve over warm dumplings.
