Description

Ingredients
•
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 tablespoons baking powder
•
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1/8 teaspoon salt
•
3 cups white sugar, divided
•
2 1/4 cups milk
•
6 cups sliced fresh peaches
•
1 cup unsalted butter
Directions
1
Light charcoal briquettes in a campfire or outdoor charcoal grill; burn until coals are mostly covered in ash, 15 to 20 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Stir in 1 1/2 cups sugar, then stir in milk until batter is well combined.
3
Toss peaches with remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar in a separate bowl; mix until evenly coated.
4
Rake coals into a flat bed; place a campfire-safe Dutch oven on top.
5
Add butter to Dutch oven until melted; swirl Dutch oven to coat all sides with melted butter. Pour batter into the pot, add peach mixture to center of the batter. Cover Dutch oven with the lid; place hot charcoal on top of lid.
6
Cook until done, about 1 hour, checking every 20 minutes to prevent over-baking.
