Ingredients
1 Cup all-purpose flour
½ Cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ tsp cinnamon powder
½ Cup of 2% milk
3 Cups of peeled, sliced, fresh peaches
Topping
1 ½ Cups water
½ Cup sugar
½ Cup packed brown sugar
1 Tbs butter
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
Directions
Preheat oven to 400ºF. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon, and stir to mix ingredients. Stir in milk until just combined (do not over mix). Fold in peaches and add to a greased, 8” x 8” square baking dish.
In a saucepan, make topping by combining water, sugar, brown sugar, butter, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir for 1 minute. Add the hot mixture to the peaches in the pan. Bake about 40 to 45 minutes, until the topping is browned and bubbly at the edges. Serve warm with ice cream.
