4 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup butter or margarine
4 Tablespoons milk or cream
3 pounds sliced peaches
TOPPING: 1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 cup sugar
Mix together flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder, butter and milk with hands to make a smooth dough. If dough does not stick together, add 1-3 tablespoons more milk. Put three quarters of the dough mixture into a greased 12×18 inch edged cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Roll with rolling pin or press with hands to cover entire pan including edges. Cover dough with peaches and sprinkle with a little sugar.
To make topping, combine flour, butter and sugar into a crumb mixture. Sprinkle over dough. Roll rest of dough into strips and cover peaches with a lattice top. (I have put the crumbs on the peaches and also the strips over the peaches and then the crumbs. I also added a little almond flavoring to the peaches.) Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes.
