Yield 6 , 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup canned peach syrup (from the canned peaches)
4 cups drained canned peaches
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
1 large egg, beaten
3 tablespoons low-fat milk
whipped cream (optional) or ice cream (optional)

Steps:

Heat oven to 400°F Lightly grease an 8x8x2-inch baking pan. Prepare the filling by combining the sugar, cornstarch and syrup in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the mixture boils and is thick. Add the canned peaches and almond extract. Keep the filling warm while you prepare the topping.
To prepare the topping, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. Cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine the egg and milk in a small bowl, and stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Pour the filling into the prepared pan. Drop the topping into 6 mounds on top of the hot filling. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into topping comes out clean. Serve warm with whipped topping or ice cream, if desired.
