Equipment

  • 8x8 inch Square Pan
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients

Peach Filling

  • 4 cups Peaches cut in 1 inch chunks
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • 4 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon

Cake Topping

  • 1 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking Powder
  • cup White Sugar
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • ¼ cup Butter melted
  • ½ cup Milk
  • 1 tbsp Coarse Sugar optional

Instructions

  • PREPARE PEACHES – Fresh peaches need peeled, pitted, and cut into 1 inch pieces. Canned peaches need drained and cut into 1 inch pieces. The cut pieces of pieces of peaches (whether fresh or canned) should be 4 cups. 
  • PREHEAT - preheat the oven to 375° F
  • COMBINE PEACH FILLING - dump the prepared peaches and vanilla into the baking pan. In a small bowl mix together the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture over the peaches and vanilla then stir to coat the peaches.
  • MIX CAKE BATTER - combine all the ingredients together and drop dollops of the cake batter on top of the peach filling. OPTIONAL: sprinkle coarse sugar over top of the cake batter
  • BAKE - bake for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling up.
  • SERVE WARM - add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoy!

Notes

TIP: When using canned peaches, dump the peach slices in a colander and let sit for several minutes to ensure all the juices drain off.  
STORAGE: cover tightly and store in the fridge for up to 4-5 days
