Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream cold butter into brown sugar until it resembles coarse crumbs. Chill this mixture.
  4. In another bowl, combine milk and eggs, whisking gently. Gradually add this to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the drained peach slices carefully, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the chilled crumble topping generously over it.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before serving warm.
