Spoon the batter into mounds on top of the fruit mixture, should make 7-8 mounds. Press the top of each mound to flatten them. If desired, brush a little whipping cream on top of each mound and sprinkle some sanding sugar on top.

If baking over a fire

Place a few hot coals on top of the Dutch oven to create a campfire oven.?Bake over the coals for 1 hour, or until the biscuits turn golden brown.
