Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- In a small bowl, add the eggs and oil. Stir until well combined.
- Add the egg and oil mixture to the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; avoid overmixing!
- Gently fold in the diced peaches with a spatula until evenly distributed in the batter.
- Carefully pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, and confectioners' sugar for the crumble topping. Stir in the melted butter until a crumbly dough forms.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peach batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs stuck to it.
- In the last few minutes of baking, heat the milk, butter, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the butter and sugar have dissolved.
- Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and insert a skewer into the top, making 25-30 evenly spaced holes all the way to the bottom.
- Carefully pour the milk mixture over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes and covers the top for extra moisture.
- Let the cake cool completely in the baking dish on a wire rack.
- For the glaze, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. If it's too thick, add more milk one teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, slice, and serve!
Notes
Make sure not to overbake the cake; keep an eye on the last few minutes for the perfect texture to remain tender. If you want a crunchy topping, consider broiling the crumble for the last few minutes of baking.
