At our cocktail party after the beach seafood boil a couple weeks ago, we wanted to have an easy dish to serve up to our guests.

It’s an insanely easy method—just pour the peaches on top of an easy-to-make batter, bake and witness a cake-like dough form around the peaches, enclosing them with lots of love. Would you agree?
