  2. Stir in the frozen peaches, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
  3. Whisk the cornstarch with a teaspoon of water to create a slurry, then stir it into the pan.

  5. Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  6. Cut in the cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Stir in the cold buttermilk just until the dough comes together; do not overmix.
  8. Dollop the dough over the hot peach filling, spreading it gently to the edges.
  9. Sprinkle the top with coarse sanding sugar.
  10. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30–35 minutes until the crust is a deep mahogany gold and juices are bubbling.
