Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir gently and let sit while preparing the batter.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. In another bowl, beat the egg, then add milk and vanilla. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined.
- Pour half of the batter evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spoon the peach mixture on top, then drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup flour.
- Drop spoonfuls of the remaining batter over the peaches, spreading gently if needed. Dot with small pieces of butter.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
