Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 6 pieces fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup sugar divided
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional) for added flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, toss the sliced peaches with 1/2 cup of sugar and let them sit to allow the juices to flow.
  3. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, the remaining sugar, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Assembly
  1. Pour the batter into a greased baking dish.
  2. Evenly distribute the peaches and their juices over the batter.
  3. Sprinkle cinnamon on top if desired.
Baking
  1. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Serving
  1. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of ice cream.

Notes

For a crisper topping, bake longer until extra golden. You can mix in other fruits or use whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
