Recipe by Taste of Home
Serves 10
Ingredients
-
2 cups ripe peaches, sliced
-
2 tablespoons bourbon (optional)
-
¼ cup butter
-
½ cup packed brown sugar
-
½ cup butter, softened
-
¾ cup sugar
-
1 large egg, room temperature
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1-¼ cups all-purpose flour
-
1-¼ teaspoons baking powder
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
½ cup 2%milk
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 F. If desired, combine peaches and bourbon. Let stand 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, place 1/4 cup butter in a 10" cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet; heat in oven until butter is melted, 5-7 minutes. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange peach slices over brown sugar.
-
For the batter, in a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating after each addition just until combined. Spread batter evenly over peaches.

Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Serve warm.
