Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cold butter
2 to 3 tablespoons ice water
8 cups sliced peeled fresh or frozen (thawed) peaches
1 1/3 cups sugar
6 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups fresh raspberries
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

In medium bowl, place flour. Cut in 1/3 cup butter, using pastry blender or fork, until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until flour is moistened. Gather pastry into a ball; flatten into round. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate 1 hour or until dough is firm yet pliable.
Butter 4 (10-oz) individual baking dishes (ramekins). Place baking dishes on cookie sheet. In 4-quart saucepan, mix peaches, 1 1/3 cups sugar, the cornstarch, cinnamon and vanilla. Heat to boiling over medium heat; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Add 3 tablespoons butter; stir until melted. Stir in raspberries. Spoon into baking dishes. Heat oven to 450°F. On lightly floured surface, roll pastry to 1/8-inch thickness; cut into 10x9-inch square. Cut into 2 (9x5-inch) rectangles; cut each rectangle into 12 (3/4x5-inch) strips. Lay 3 strips over peach mixture in each baking dish; cross with 3 more strips. Brush with egg; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake 20 minutes or until filling is bubbly and tops are golden brown. Serve warm.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup water
2 cups sliced peeled fresh or frozen peaches
1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
Vanilla ice cream, if desired

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°. Mix 2/3 cup sugar, the cornstarch and water in 10-inch ovenproof skillet. Stir in peaches until coated. Heat over medium heat 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until syrup thickens and peaches are tender.
Meanwhile, mix flour, baking powder, salt and 1/4 cup sugar in medium bowl. Drizzle butter and half-and-half over flour mixture; stir just until combined. Place dough on floured surface. Press or roll into 10-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick (sprinkle flour over dough if necessary).
Gently fold raspberries into peaches. Heat to boiling over high heat; remove from heat.
Fold dough in half to make handling easier; place over fruit mixture and unfold, easing to fit (there may be some gaps around edge). Sprinkle top with 2 tablespoons sugar and the almonds. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until top is light golden brown. Cool 15 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream.
