Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups Sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 tbsp. butter, heaping & softened
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 16oz frozen peaches, thawed
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, sour cream, vanilla, and buttermilk, mixing until smooth and well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until incorporated.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Gently nestle the peaches into the batter, allowing some to overlap and ensuring they are not pushed all the way to the bottom.
  • In a small bowl, prepare the topping and sprinkle it evenly over the batter.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
  • Serve warm.
