(by Shirley McNevich)

3 cups fresh blueberries
3 cups fresh peach slices
2 cups flour
1/2 cup white sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup cold butter (cut into pieces)
1 cup milk
Topping: 2/3 cup white sugar; 1/4 cup cornstarch; 1 1/2 cups boiling water

Grease a 9 x 13 glass baking dish. Spread the blueberries and peach slices all over the bottom of the dish. In a bowl add flour, 1/2 cup white sugar, baking powder and salt--stir to mix. Add the cold butter pieces--mix with a pastry blender to make crumbs. Add the milk to the crumb mixture--stir well. Spoon the whole mixture over the blueberries and peaches. In a separate bowl add the 2/3 cup white sugar and cornstarch--stir to mix. Sprinkle the white sugar mixture all over the top of the batter. SLOWLY pour the boiling water evenly over the whole top. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
