Servings: 8

Ingredients

Fresh peaches: 6 cups, peeled, pitted, and sliced
Granulated sugar: 3/4 cup
All-purpose flour: 1 cup
Baking powder: 1 tablespoon
Salt: 1/4 teaspoon
Ground cinnamon: 1 teaspoon, plus additional for sprinkling
Unsalted butter: 1/2 cup, melted
Milk: 1/2 cup
Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar. Stir well to coat the peaches evenly. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to release their juices.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the peach mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Ensure the peach juices are evenly distributed.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches, covering as much of the surface as possible. It’s okay if some peach slices peek through.
Sprinkle additional ground cinnamon over the batter for extra flavor.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This dish is best enjoyed warm.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures.
