Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 (28-ounce) can sliced peaches in heavy syrup, un-drained (If they are available, by all means use fresh peaches; see note*)
- Cinnamon, for sprinkling, optional
- Vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream, for serving
Directions
*In a saucepan, mix 2 cups fresh peach slices with one cup sugar and one cup water. Bring the mixture to a boil and then simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir often, making sure the sugar is completely dissolved. Substitute this for the canned peaches.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Put butter in a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish and place in the oven to melt. Stir sugar and flour together and mix well. Slowly add milk and continue stirring to prevent the batter from lumping.
Being careful not to burn yourself, remove hot baking dish containing melted butter from oven; pour batter directly over butter in baking dish. Do not stir.
Spoon fruit on top of batter, then gently pour syrup on top. Do not stir. Sprinkle cinnamon on top of batter, if using. (The most important part of this dish is not stirring the mixture at this point in the recipe.)
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Your batter will rise above your fruit, producing the most wonderful of crusts. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.

I love how she uses at least a stick of butter in every recipe!!! How are you finding time to bake these days? Good job!
everything is better with butter!
i'm not baking a thing. the only thing i make these days is double doses of breast milk. lol. my mom is in town and i love it. ;D
That looks delightful! It kind of reminds me of the easy recipe of peach cobbler that uses a cake mix, butter and a can of peaches or something like that and you cook it over a fire in a dutch oven! Oh yum! I am hungry now!
I tried this recipe a few weeks ago and it turned out all gooey - I don't know what I did wrong!
You need to let it sit at least 10 minutes before eating...also make sure you use self rising flour--the internet recipe is incorrect. There will be a little goo but that is part of the deliciousness! Crispy on top and warm, goo inside!
