Peach Willy

I know, you’re looking at this and thinking  “What is Peach Willy?” This is a recipe that has been in our family since I can remember. When I saw the Sunday Supper Forum  I knew what I would be making.peach Willy #SundaySupper ImageI have to admit that I haven’t made this in years.  When I pulled out the recipe I shocked to see the dough was made out of Bisquick (yep, you read that right). In my horror I called my Mom (who is my go to expert for baking) and asked if I was reading this correctly. She assured me it was and it would be really good, we used to make it all the time. Luckily I found a suitable biscuit mix at my local Whole Foods – whew. Peach Willy #SundaySupper

How this recipe got it’s name is beyond me. It’s made up of biscuit dough rolled out into a rectangle, coated with brown sugar and peaches then rolled like a jelly roll.  Slice the roll, arrange in a pie plate then top with a brown sugar syrup and any fruit that might have escaped.  Bake this, then sprinkle with a mix of brown and white sugars for a glossy sheen. It is truly amazing.Peach Willy #SundaySupperI set about making this for a friends birthday celebration.  I was pleasantly surprised, it was just as good as I remembered – even better.peach Willy #Sunday Supper

Peach Willy

This recipe was a staple in our house as I grew up.  Now I have to admit I don't mix up the biscuit mix.  I use two pie crusts or the prepared puff pastry.  It's even better than the biscuit mix but don't tell my Mom!
