Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugars.
  3. Cut in the Earth Balance butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add boiling water to the flour mixture and stir just until combined.
  5. Spoon the batter over the baked peaches, spreading it gently.
