Peach and Blueberry Cobbler

Ingredients:
4 cups peeled and sliced peaches (sliced in eighths)
2 cups blueberries
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 Tbs. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. grated lemon zest

TOPPING:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup buttermilk

~ Preheat oven to 400 F.
Combine peaches, blueberries, sugar, flour, and lemon zest in a large bowl. Spread mixture in a buttered 8- or 9-inch round or square baking dish.
Prepare topping by combining flour, baking powder, baking soda, 3 Tbs. sugar and salt in a bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips until mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs.
Mix in buttermilk until a soft dough forms, adding more buttermilk if necessary.
(Alternatively, combine dry ingredients in a food processor, cut in butter and then stir in buttermilk.) The dough should be soft and may be slightly sticky.
Drop spoonfuls of topping onto fruit. Sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbs. sugar.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until mixture is lightly browned on top and peaches and bluberries have formed a bubbling syrup.
