2 cups sliced peaches (maybe be froozen)
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup sifted flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1/4 cup shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the fruit, butter and lemon rind in a saucepan. Add the cornstarch and ¾ cup of sugar. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Pour into a 10 by 6 inch backing disk and let stand while making the topping. Sift the flour, the remaining ¾ cup sugar, baking powder, and salt into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, shortening, vanilla, and egg. Beat at medium speed for 2 or 3 minutes. Spoon over the fruit mixture in a baking dish. Bake for 40 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping. Note: if peaches are very sweet, you may want to cut back on sugar. You can bake at our house while dinner is cooking if you want.
