Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large pot, add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water to make a simple syrup over medium to low heat, stirring until clear (about 4-5 minutes).

Cut 6 medium peaches in half, remove the pit, and peel the skin off using a paring knife.

Cut the peeled peaches into quarter-inch slices and place them in a bowl, collecting the juice.

Stir the simple syrup to dissolve any sugar crystals, then add the sliced peaches and cook for about 2 minutes over medium-high heat.

Remove the peaches from heat and let them steep in the simple syrup.

Melt 1 stick of unsalted butter, optionally browning it for more flavor, and pour it into a 9 by 13 inch baking dish.

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest; whisk to combine.

Add 1 1/2 cups milk and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth, creating a thin batter.

Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish without mixing them together.
