Hello my Dear Wonderful Readers!!
How are you all doing today? Its been raining here all week and its been so cold, I am always in my socks and either I am eating some thing warm or drinking the same. While it is quite easy to make cold desserts, warm desserts are a little “different”. Now I know I could make a batch of warm cookies or brownies and eat them right out of the oven. But here is the thing, I wanted to incorporate fresh fruits in there as well. Now, synonymous to these cozy days, is the world Lazy! So the last thing on my mind is to bring everything to room temperature and adding raising agents etc! So this is my” no stress, just vegetate and eat warm gooey deserts” recipe.
Also this is a great option when you have surprise visitors over for dinner and you do want to make some thing sweet at the end of your meal. You could use any kind of fruit, the base remains the same and let me tell you, in my opinion, tart fruits work the best cause they cut through the sugar in the base and leave you with this wonderful warm happy feeling!
Ice cream or fresh cream, how ever you fashion to pair this dessert, it is a total win – win. Oh and did I forget to mention, its a ONE POT dessert!
My mum makes another version of the same thing and adds roasted cashew nuts and bananas too. Oh that one is out of this world and to compare the two wouldn’t be fair. So if you are looking for a warm, sweet, fruit and cakey dessert that doesn’t involve too much work but you would like to enjoy on a cold night, then I strongly recommend this recipe!
Ingredients :-
- Flour – 2 cups
- Powdered Sugar – 1 cup
- Butter – 100 gms
- Vanilla – seeds from one pod or 2 tsp
- Salt – just a pinch
- Fresh Peaches – 6 (sliced thin)
- Eggs – 3
- Butter ( just to grease the bowl)
- Milk – 1 cup
Instructions :-
- Pop the butter into a microwaveable dish and melt. Set it aside to cool
- While that is happening, place a kitchen towel on your counter and place your large bowl
- Slice peaches to desired thickness and set aside
- Add flour and sugar and whisk together
- Then add the milk, eggs, vanilla and salt
- Whisk well to for a lump free batter ( little thicker than a pancake batter)
- Grease your pie tray or enamel wear or even your cake tin with butter ( using a shallow tray makes the fruit pop out better through the cakey base)
- Pour the batter into the pan
- Then arrange the peaches over the batter. The batter is very runny so some of the fruit may sink but that’s ok, just add more 🙂
- Pop the tray into a pre-heated over at 180 C for around 30 – 45 mins
- Once done, pull it out of the oven and serve right away with a dusting of powdered sugar and fresh cream or ice cream!!
