Ingredients

1 can (15 ounces) sliced peaches in juice

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, vanilla and remaining butter. Add to dry ingredients and stir until blended. Spoon over peaches. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

Very good makeover recipe for peach upside down cake. Tasy and easy to make when using canned peaches.

This was a great cake. Not as pretty as the picture. Don't know why the makeover cake used canned peaches instead of fresh. Used fresh then used peach puree instead of juice from the can. Would definitely make again but would try doubling the peaches on top.

This is really good. I have made it several times. The peaches are a nice change of pace from traditional pineapple upside-down cake.
