Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the peaches and blueberries. Sprinkle with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice, tossing gently to coat. Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the diced cold butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Create a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the fruit, leaving small gaps for the spread as it bakes.
Sprinkle the coarse sugar over the top of the biscuit dough for a lightly sweet, crisp topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to thicken slightly.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate Southern dessert experience!
