Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Peel and slice the fresh peaches and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt for the crumble topping. Mix until crumbly.
Gently fold the sliced peaches into the cake batter. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool for a few minutes before serving.
