Ingredients

• 3 whole (peeled and diced) fresh peaches
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0 optional, for topping whipped cream or vanilla ice cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Peel and dice the peaches into small pieces, discarding the pits. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat and sauté the diced peaches with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar for about 5 minutes, until softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool.

Step 4

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar.

Step 5

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Stir gently until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Grease a small baking dish (approximately 8 inches) with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 8

Pour half of the batter into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Spoon the sautéed peaches over the batter, spreading them out gently to form an even layer.

Step 10

Pour the remaining batter over the peaches, covering them as much as possible.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Step 13

Optional: Top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of sweetness!
