I love peaches! My godmother came for a visit on the ranch recently and reminded me about this classic dish. It is such a simple and wonderful way to enjoy summer fruit when it is abundant and at peak flavor. One of my favorite things about making a buckle is the way the batter buckles over and around the fruit as it bakes, making the most scrumptious, chewy, buttery top layer.
TIP: Freestone peaches are best for this recipe because they are easy to pit and slice.
The butter for the buckle and for the caramel sauce does not have to be softened before use.
