Ingredients:

  • 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, sliced
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups (250g) self-rising flour
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) melted butter

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced peaches or blackberries with the sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
  3. Let the fruit sit for 5–10 minutes to macerate to create a thick syrup.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly into a single layer.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour and sugar until no lumps remain.
  6. Stir in the milk and 1/2 cup (113g) of melted butter until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter evenly over the fruit without stirring.
  8. Bake for 50–60 minutes until the top is a deep mahogany-gold and fruit juices are bubbling.
  9. Allow to cool for 15 minutes to let the sauce set before serving.
