This is a great recipe, as most of the time you will have the items in your cupboard. You can substitute the peaches for almost any fruit, but the recipe is traditionally made with cherries, using a light batter as opposed to a cake mixture.

Serves: 4/5
Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 25-30 Mins

INGREDIENTS:

3 tbsp self raising flour
5 tbsp golden caster sugar
3 eggs, beaten
Sprinkle of salt
15 oz of milk
A little butter for greasing
2 tsp of nutmeg, cinnamon or mixed spice
14 oz of tinned peaches in natural juice
2 tsp almond slivers

METHOD:

Heat the oven to 420 F/ 220 C. In a mixing bowl, place the flour, 3 tbsp of the caster sugar, salt and 1 tsp of the nutmeg/cinnamon or mixed spice. Mix together. Pour the beaten eggs into the mixture and combine together thoroughly.

Gently heat the milk in a saucepan until just warm. Pour into the batter mix, add the almonds and mix well.

Drain the peaches and place in the bottom of a lightly greased baking dish. Pour in the mixture and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until set, but still a little wobbly.

Sprinkle over the remaining nutmeg and sugar. Serve warm with delicious ice cream.
