Easy Peach Cobbler

For the peaches:
Heat the oven to 425ºF. Mix the sugar, cornstarch, pumpkin spice and salt together. Toss with the peaches and lemon juice. Place in a 2-quart glass cooking dish and bake for 10 minutes.

For the topping:
While the peaches are baking, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a food processor, or bowl. Mix to combine. Pulse the butter in until it resembles coarse meal (or use your fingers or a pastry blender); add the boiling water and stir until just combined.

Remove the peaches from the oven and drop spoonfuls of the topping over the top. Bake in the middle of the oven until the topping is golden, about 25 minutes (the topping will spread as it cooks).

Serve warm or at room temperature with optional whipped cream or ice cream as desired.
