- 1 lg. can sliced peaches in heavy
syrup
- 1 stick of margarine
- 1 cup self rising flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup milk
In a 9x13 casserole dish, melt margarine in
hot oven (350 degrees). Be sure to let
margarine melt completely until nice and
bubbly in dish. While margarine melts, place
the flour and sugar into a medium sized
mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly until there are
no large lumps left. Add the milk and mix
until no longer lumpy. This can be done by
hand with a spoon or fork but a hand mixer
works much faster.
After the margarine is completely melted,
remove dish from oven and pour peaches and
syrup into hot margarine and gently mix
peaches, syrup and margarine together so
that all well mixed. On top of the peaches
mixture, pour the milk mixture over the
peaches.
Place the dish back into the oven and cook
uncovered for about 30 minutes at 350
degrees. Check after 15 minutes to see if
the crust has started to brown. Keep a close
eye on it, if it has started to brown check
it every 5 minutes afterwards to make sure
it does not get too brown. When ready, the
top crust will appear a golden brown.
A quick note about the peaches in heavy
syrup...I have tried the lower sugar types
but the heavy syrup provides a much better
flavor.
This dessert has been a favorite of my
entire family for many, many years. I hope
that others like it as well. I cook this
dessert when I am crunched for time and need
something nice to take to a church function
or just as a quick dessert when we are all
feel a need for something sweet and yummy!
