A quick and simple one-pan peach dessert featuring juicy peaches and a tender, buttery crust that bakes to golden perfection. Perfect for a homemade treat with minimal fuss and cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large ripe peaches, sliced into 1/4-inch wedges
  • 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50 grams) brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk (whole, low-fat, or dairy-free)
  • Optional: handful of chopped pecans or almonds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and slice 4 large ripe peaches into 1/4-inch wedges. Toss them gently in a bowl with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside to macerate for 10 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Add 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter cubes to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter, fork, or fingertips, work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 cup milk. Mix gently until the dough just comes together; it should be slightly crumbly but hold when pressed.
  6. Spread half the dough evenly across the bottom of a greased 9-inch cast iron skillet or baking dish. Press down firmly but do not compress too much.
  7. Spoon the peach mixture over the crust, spreading evenly along with their juices. If using nuts, sprinkle them on top now.
  8. Drop small spoonfuls of the remaining dough over the peaches, leaving gaps so the peaches peek through.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden and peach juices are bubbly and fragrant.
  10. Let the peach delight rest for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken.

Notes

If crust edges brown too quickly, tent with foil halfway through baking. Drain excess liquid from peaches if overly juicy to keep crust crisp. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. For gluten-free, substitute almond flour; for dairy-free, use chilled coconut oil and plant-based milk.
