Ingredients

  • 8-9 fully ripe medium size peaches peeled, pitted and cut in halves
  • 3 Tbsp cane sugar or brown sugar (optional)
  • 1 Tbsp brandy or cognac optional, but HIGHLY recommended
  • 1/4 cup peach juice or any other juice, such as mango juice
  • 1 stick of butter melted + 1 Tbsp for greasing
  • 2 cups of cake mix

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C)
  • Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter
  • Place the peach halves with the brandy and sugar in a large bowl and mix
  • Add the melted butter, the juice and mix.
  • Add the cake mix and stir gently so as not to break the peaches, until there is no dry flour left.
  • Dump the batter into the greased cake pan and spread evenly, keeping the peach halves cut side down.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top of cake is golden brown for about 35-40 minutes, depending on your oven. You may want to check for doneness at 30 minutes
  • Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream

Notes

To make the homemade cake mix, combine the following:
1 1/3 cup cake flour (all purpose flour will work just fine, I do it all the time)
2/3 cup fine sugar or powdered sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
