Ingredients

For the pudding:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
1/2 cup 2% milk
3 cups fresh or frozen peaches sliced and peeled

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, the salt, and the cinnamon.
Stir the milk into the flour mixture until just combined.
Fold the peaches into the flour mixture.
Spread the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a large saucepan, combine the water, the sugar, the brown sugar, the butter, and the nutmeg.
Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugars are dissolved.
Pour the sauce over the peach mixture in the baking dish.
Bake the pudding until the filling is bubbly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40-50 minutes.
Serve warm or cold with ice cream.
