Directions
Pour ¼ cup melted butter into a square or round glass baking dish , spreading to completely coat the dish.
Place sliced peaches in baking dish and stir to completely coat with butter. Pour butter-coated peaches into a medium bowl and set aside. The baking dish should have a nice buttered coating.
Place flour, soda, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large mixing bowl and combine thoroughly. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
In small mixing bowl, mix buttermilk, vanilla, egg and remaining ¼ cup butter until thoroughly blended. Pour into the well of the flour mixture and stir lightly until just blended. Do not over mix.
Spread ½ of the batter into the baking dish. Spread peaches onto the batter. Spread remaining ½ of the batter over the peaches. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoon brown sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired. Bake uncovered in 350℉ (180℃) oven for 50 minutes.
Let cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
