Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ripe peaches, sliced
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (for batter)
- 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the peaches in half, remove pits, and cut into wedges.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup butter with 3/4 cup sugar until bubbling. Pour the mixture into a greased 9-inch round baking pan and spread evenly.
- Arrange peach wedges in a circular pattern over the caramel sauce.
- In a large bowl, cream together the remaining stick of butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and bourbon.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
- Pour the batter over the peaches evenly and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow cooling for about 10 minutes before flipping onto a serving plate.
